Texas lawyer鈥檚 gun rage
Print Edition
A TROUBLED lawyer opened fire on morning commuters in Houston, Texas, yesterday, injuring at least nine people before being shot dead by police, authorities said.
Six victims were taken to hospital and three were treated at the scene after being shot at while inside their vehicles in the wealthy neighborhood of West University Place, acting Houston Police Chief Martha Montalvo told reporters.
One of the victims was in critical condition and another was in serious condition.
Montalvo declined to identify the suspect but said he was a lawyer and had concerns about his law firm. Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner, in Cuba on a trip to develop trade relations, told reporters: “The motivation appears to be a lawyer whose relationship with his law firm went bad.”
The bomb squad was securing the suspect’s car, which had numerous weapons in it.
Broken glass from shattered car windows littered a parking lot in a shopping center near where the suspect fired 20 to 30 shots.
A woman, next to a car with bullet holes in the windshield, said she heard “bullets literally whiz by my window.”
