“Fireman, Gunman Dead in Wendy’s Shooting”
March 4, 2008 - 12:18am
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) -
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The 42-year-old victim, Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue Lt. Rafael Vazquez, who was not in uniform, had met his wife and child at the restaurant during a break in training down the street, Deputy Fire-Rescue Chief Steve Delai said. The family had gotten their food and walked out, but Vazquez returned because the wrong free toy had been included in the kids’ meal, detectives said.
Vazquez’s wife, a law enforcement officer in nearby Palm Springs, and child were in the parking lot when he was shot in the back as he stood at the counter.
“Our officer probably didn’t even see him,” Delai said of the gunman, Alburn Edward Blake.
Miller said Blake, a handyman and maintenance worker, had no relation to anyone at the restaurant and had never worked for Wendy’s, and authorities had not found any notes.”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Neighbors described Blake as a quiet man who kept to himself. Michele Grippe watched police go into Blake’s apartment after the shooting to search it.
“The only thing they took out of the house was a bag of pills,” Grippe said. “Right now, I’m really, really shocked. ... I’m here with my kids, and it’s really scary to think about that. Sometimes we’ll keep our door open. My kids play outside.””
