UT Shooting/Suicide

This situation in Austin seems to be a more public version of the violent scene in "To Save A Life". Even though he's dressed to kill with an AK-47, it appears he wasn't really shooting at anybody at this point before barricading himself and then shooting himself inside the library.

And for those unfamiliar with the UT campus, this library is very close to the UT Tower where Charles Whitman sniper killed students back in 1966.

Maybe he was upset over the UT UCLA game from last week. Glad no one else was injured on campus today.

I remember where I was that day when Whitman was up on the tower and the news came out about the shooting.
