Woman kills husband with folding couch

A Russian woman in St Petersburg killed her drunk husband with a folding couch, Russian media reported on Wednesday.

St Petersburg's Channel Five said the man's wife, upset with her husband for being drunk and refusing to get up, kicked a handle after an argument, activating a mechanism that folds the couch up against a wall.

The couch, which doubles as a bed, folds up automatically in order to save space. The man fell between the mattress and the back of the couch, Channel Five quoted emergency workers as saying.

The woman then walked out of the room and returned three hours later to check on what she thought was an unusually quiet sleeping husband.

Police refused to comment.

The St Petersburg Emergency Services Ministry said a private rescue service removed the man's body.

Video on the television channel's website showed emergency workers sawing away the side panels of a couch to remove a man in his underwear lying headfirst between the cushions.

Emergency workers said the man died instantly.

      So in other words, he was crushed to death when she hit the switch and the folding couch pinned him against the wall? Right? He died instantly and didn't feel a thing. Poor guy…..damn. This is something you would see on an episode of Six Feet Under. Wacky and bizarre death scenes were the norm for that show……..

      Man, I know men can be terrible to live with but this is an example of a brutal punishment! How does the police know that she did it? He could have accidentally did it himself. Was there a confession?
