Five people died including the shooter (suicide), four injured (three critically). Of the critically injured one died the next day, another in October.<br /><br />I was in San Antonio in 1966, stationed at Fort Sam Houston, during the U of Texas tower shooting. I remember hearing a radio broadcast of frantic shouting coming from a reporter on the scene with gunshots in the background.John Marius Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08253976401950702661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7061872101082544823.post-45816444121503562902012-12-18T17:44:11.698-06:002012-12-18T17:44:11.698-06:00September 15, 1997.

It was the Phi Delt House in Mankato when I attended college in 1966. My future husband and I went out to Judge Mason's home on the hill to put up Christmas decorations that year for his wife and him. The shooters name was Charles Whitman.I remember meeting the Judge while I joined <br /> my husband to be. It was so incredibly sad to hear the story. <br /><br />How can I have two connections to the stories you have published?

He was with us for parts of two years while in 4th and 5th grades. <br />It was March 21, 2005. It happened at the Red Lake Indian Reservation here in MN. He killed 10 people plus his grandparents. He stole the guns from them. He needed support in many ways but I am certain he did not get enough. Seven years later he stormed the school at the reservation with guns.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
