Burglar Shot Dead After Gas Orbit Waits for Death
The burglar who opened gas jets in a Manhattan flat to kill a family was shot and killed by resident Verrall, a Metropolitan Museum of Art keeper. The incident began when Mrs Verrall awakened to gas fumes and turned off the leaks, followed by a dramatic pursuit through the building as Verrall and neighbor Kiernan confronted the intruder. Police later stated the burglar was dead. Verrall faced a homicide technical charge. Local magistrate Corrigan commented on self defense as Verrall claimed he acted to protect his wife and children.
