Iowa ex-city manager opens fire at meeting, is killed with own gun

A former city manager who opened fire at a Jackson County supervisors meeting in eastern Iowa was killed with his own gun in a struggle that followed the first shot, officials said.

…..

As they were holding him down, waiting for help there, the gun went off,” killing Glaser, Kettmann said, adding that it was unclear whether the shot was accidental.

Glaser did not have a permit to buy or carry a gun, he said.

Just another non-law abiding asshole who had no problem obtaining a gun for the purpose of killing someone. Fortunately, this time it was the asshole.
