Frustrated Man Shoots Computer
ISSAQUAH, WASH.(AP) -- A man was coaxed out of his
home by police after he pulled a gun and shot his personal computer,
apparently in frustration. "We don't know if it wouldn't boot up or what," Sgt. Keith Moon said.
The computer, in a home office on the second floor of the townhouse, had four bullet holes
in the hard drive and one in the monitor. One bullet struck a filing cabinet, while another made
it through a wall and into a neighboring unit. No one was hurt. Police
evacuated the complex, contacted the 43-year-old man by telephone and got him
to come out. He was taken to a hospital for a mental evaluation. **
