Baby Killer, Pt. 2 - _TNY_4594
Here is a male (as evidenced by the huge chelicerae) zebra spider (Salticus scenicus) which has caught and is eating a much smaller jumping spider, possibly a juvenile of the same species.
I took a chance and abandoned this one and rushed in to change to the MP-E lens to get closer, but when I came back outside, the spider was gone.
Looks kind of cool (and gruesome) like this as well though.
