Taize’s founder stabbed to death during service

I can hardly believe it: "Brother Roger, one of the 20th century’s leading ecumenical figures, was stabbed to death by a woman during a service on Tuesday at the Taize community he founded in eastern France"
May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
I can't begin to imagine why somene would do this to such a saintly man.
