US firefighters shot dead at blaze in Webster, New York

Quote:

Two volunteer firefighters have been shot dead and two injured while responding to an emergency call in the town of Webster in New York state.
It appears the four were fired upon as they arrived at the scene of a fire early on Monday morning.
The blaze broke out just before 06:00 local time (11:00 GMT) and the shooting reportedly prevented firefighters putting it out for several hours.
A gunman has been found dead at the scene, local police say.

Poetic justice if he burned to death, or at least died from smoke inhalation.

Apparently he shot himself.

The suspect was one sick individual and should have probably never been released on parole, he had spent 18 years in prison for killing his mother with a hammer and had been on parole since the end of the 1990s.

This all happened within 15 minutes drive of where I live, and about 3 miles from my Aunt's house.
