"Gunman Arrested at Miami Herald Building"
Nov 24th - 3:53pm
By JENNIFER KAY Associated Press Writer

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "MIAMI (AP) - A cartoonist carrying a gun and dressed in camouflage surrendered to police at The Miami Herald's building Friday, more than two hours after arriving and demanding to see an editor of the newspaper's Spanish-language sister paper, police said.

No injuries were reported, and no shots were fired.


Jose Varela carried a semiautomatic pistol loaded with 30 rounds of ammunition, police chief John Timoney said. Varela had problems with El Nuevo Herald, where he worked as a contractor, that included its position on Cuban emigres.


Varela was a contract cartoonist for the newspaper and had routine access to the building, officials said.


A police negotiator talked Varela into surrendering peacefully at about 2:45 p.m., Timoney said."
