Yea, I remember that. The shooter came into the office as an emergency patient and said he got something in his eye. When the receptionist asked which eye, the guy could not remember. So she showed him to an exam room and then told the doctor that there was something weird about the patient. When the doc enter the room, he recognized the shooter. The shooter was an OD from a neighboring city. They knew each other from local meetings and CE. They never got together outside these settings, nor where they in direct competition. After the doc asked what he can help with, the shooter pulled out a gun and shoot the doc in the head! They fought for the gun and another shoot went right past the doc's head and entered the ceiling. The doc got the gun and ran out the door. The receptionist shut the door and they locked him in the room until the police came. When the cops entered the room, the shooter reached for something and the cops shoot him, he died. They still don't know why the OD did it. As I said, they weren't in competition really. I would imagine the victim knows the reason, but just doesn't want to say. If I were to guess, I think the victim told patients that the shooter was not very good or something like that and it got back to him. That is just my guess.
When I read this, I ran to our anatomy prof and told her about it. On all our test, there was always at least one question about being shot somewhere and we would have to know everything that would be hit by the path of the bullet. When I told her where in the head the doc was shoot, she said, "I bet he lived." She was right, Dr T is always right.
Crazy story, huh?
