that's a weird question to ask. the shooter can be anyone. the police don't seem to know anything and don't seem concerned to find anything out.

how do you know the police are not concerned? do you know how hard it is to solve a murder?

i knew this person - more like knew of him. he hung out at a few local bars, and was slightly a nuisance, but also a really pitiful soul. when i saw his picture, and heard it was him, it took my breath away. sadly, it is not shocking; he seemed to push people's buttons all the time. but it's sad. he is a tragic figure in the truest sense

No one deserves to be killed. Being a slight nuisance or pushing your bottons is NO reason to be killed.

Why haven't the police found out any information about his death. It seems we would have heard more in the news.

I really don't think the police care too much about this case.
