Santino
William LeGan, 19, fired indiscriminately into the crowd
near a concert stage at the festival. He used an AK-47-style
rifle, purchased legally in Nevada three weeks earlier.
After apparently pausing to reload, he fired additional
multiple rounds before police responding at the scene shot
him to death. A witness described overhearing someone shout
at LeGan, "Why are you doing this?" LeGan, who was dressed
in camouflage, replied: “Because I'm really angry." The
murdered victims included a 13-year-old girl, a man in his
20s, and six-year-old Stephen Romero.

Craddock, 40, a municipal city worker wielding handguns, a

Guard, and "had a shaved head, bodybuilder’s physique and
cameras in the windows of his house on a peaceful cul-de-sac,"
according to the Washington Post. |

bank shooting |
Sebring,

Zephen
A. Xaver, 21, fatally shot five women inside a bank and then
called the police to confess. He was armed with a handgun and
wore a bulletproof vest. He reportedly ordered the women to
lie down on the floor and shot them execution-style. After a
standoff with police, he surrendered and was taken into
custody. A week prior, Xaver had quit a job as a prison guard
trainee, and authorities said they believed the shooting was
"a random act" and that roberry did not appear to be a motive.
An ex-girlfriend in Indiana told local media she'd been
“scared for years” by Xaver’s talk of violence and death, but
that her warnings to others (who she did not identify) were
not taken seriously. She said she’d first met Xaver in a
psychiatric hospital in 2013. In March 2017, Michigan State
Police documented an incident in which Xaver indicated he was
“possibly thinking of suicide by cop and taking hostages." |

who then fled; he was captured by authorities the following
day. Reinking had a history of erratic behavior and run-ins
with law enforcement in his home state of Illinois, including
claims that he was being stalked and harassed by pop star
Taylor Swift. In July 2017, he was arrested at the White House
after breaching security in an effort to speak with President
Trump, reportedly claiming his right to do so as “a sovereign
