LAKE SERIAL KILLER TERRORIZES TEXAS!

RESIDENTS of party-hardy Austin, Texas, are living in terror as a body believed to be the eighth victim of a serial killer chillingly dubbed the "Rainey Street Ripper" has been fished out of a local lake!

- 

John Christopher HaysClark, 30, was found floating at 1:21 a.m. near Longhorn

Dam in Lady Bird Lake on April 15 and thousands of residents believe he's another victim of the vicious ripper's bloody rampage.

Austin cops say Hays-Clark is the fourth male found in the lake this year and the eighth in the past ten months, but they are pooh-poohing the theory a serial killer is prowling the city's nightlife center and murdering young men.
