Gunman on drugs carries out Azusa shooting spree
Investigators describe a cocaine fueled attack in Azusa California where a gunman armed with multiple weapons fired on residents killing one man and wounding two women before police killed him. The suspect, a 45 year old former military public works employee, lived in the town five months with his wife and two children fleeing earlier. Authorities identified the victim as Francis Varney 77. The two injured women ages 59 and 65 remained in critical condition. The incident led to a standoff, shutdown of polling sites, and a police response using a robot to confirm the gunman was dead. Hundreds of rounds were found inside the home. The motive remains under investigation.
