mn86:3.5 “Don’t take this road, ascetic.

mn86:3.6 On this road there is a bandit named Aṅgulimāla. He is violent, bloody-handed, a hardened killer, merciless to living beings.

mn86:3.7 He has laid waste to villages, towns, and countries.

mn86:3.8 He is constantly murdering humans, and he wears their fingers as a necklace.
