So yesterday a man in Herkimer, NY shot and killed 4 people, and left 2 in critical condition. I later found out that this was my grandparents' neighbor who lives right next door to them. I have literally met and talked to this guy before. After he shot the people, he was somehow able to escape. He ended up going back to his house and burning it down.

And if that isn't crazy enough, my grandfather had an appointment to get his haircut at the exact same time and the same barber shop that the man shot the people at. Luckily, he had to cancel it because he needed to pick my grandmother up from the hospital. The suspect was later found in an abandoned bar behind my grandfathers work where he was shot down. Anyways, I just wanted to share this crazy experience with you guys. It's opened up a new view on life for me and my family.
