SNIPPET: “SEATTLE — In the second day of the retrial of Naveed Haq, jurors were hit with disturbing testimony from the survivors.
Witnesses described the harrowing scene of July 28, 2006 as Haq, the suspected gunman in the deadly shooting rampage inside the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle, hunted them down room by room, aiming to kill.
“He shot at me again, and it went back behind my left knee and knocked me down,” said Christina Rexroad.
Rexroad, who was shot several times, said the bullet to her gut nearly killed her.
“It went in my abdomen, came out my groin area and it severed my femural artery,” she said.
Witnesses described their terror as they watched Haq hunt down Pam Waechter down the hall as she tried to run away.
Waechter, 58, died from her gunshot wounds. She was the director of the center’s fundraising campaign.”
SNIPPET: “Jurors heard the tape of the 911 call during which Haq himself addresses the operator.
“This is a hostage situation. I have a hostage,” said the caller. “this is Naveed Haq.”
The dispatcher is then heard trying to rationalize with Haq, and asking him what he wants.
“This is a hostage situation. I want these Jews out,” Haq is heard responding.”
