Some are as complex as a movie script (almost):
Riverside, Cal. (1944)
03/05/1944: A married U.S. Army officer rebuffed by a young
lady who preferred another, apparently unmarried officer, opened fire with his service
pistol, killing the object of his passion and another young woman, wounding the
officer who she preferred, and another officer passing by.
“Crouching and backing toward the door” the murderer “held the
rest of the crowd at bay in true movie fashion.” Then he sought more ammunition from his
captain. The captain refused and the
murderer shot him as well. Next, he
wounded a soldier who responded to the shooting.
Then he commandeered a car; he crashed it into another car,
opening fire on its passengers in that other car, wounding one and killing one
responding police officer and wounding another officer. Their shots felled the murderer who soon
faced a court-martial.
