Cops Shoot Empire State Building Shooter

Several days ago a man shot a former co-worker in the head five times, killing him, before being killed himself by police. A number of bystanders were wounded during the exchange of gunfire that took place in front of the Empire State Building in New York City during the morning rush hour. Apparently, the victim had previously filed a complaint against his assailant which had said he believed the man would try to kill him. The shooter, a clothing designer, had been fired from his job about a year ago and is said to have been upset that the man he shot had not sold enough of his designs.
