Great 69 contest entry. A killer strikes on Valentine's Day.

On Valentineโ€™s Day, a killer struck.  The first victim, a box of chocolates, was found stabbed through the heart.  The murderer left a note which read:

Catch me if you can!
The Valentine Killer

The second victim, a box of Lucky Charms, was ruthlessly torn open.  Each pink heart was impaled on a toothpick. 

The police chief said, โ€œItโ€™s worse than I thought.  Weโ€™re dealing with a cereal killer!โ€
