So today I grabbed yesterday's newspaper to check out the flyer's. I always scan the front page before flipping to the political cartoons. This time I didn't flip to the cartoons. Instead I found my eyes glued to the headline: Murder-suicide confirmed in fatal shootings.
Here!? Here, in my little city, a murder-suicide? This happened last Saturday (October 30th). The police have yet to comment (to the press at least) why this action was taken. It's an odd feeling. I didn't personally know the people involved but what if they used to come through my till at work? If it can happen once it can happen again right?
I'm not sure what to think. When I saw the headline my heart stopped, I sat down and all I could say was, "What...?". All I was thinking was a horrified, confused blur. I guess death can have that effect on people. Especially senseless death.
