A married, father of two who moonlighted as an Uber driver is being
blamed for a shooting rampage Saturday night that left six people dead
and two others wounded. The big question remains, what set off the
deadly spree?
Police say 45-year-old Jason Dalton, described by
his neighbors as a good family man, apparently randomly picked his
victims, who were killed or wounded over a four-hour period at three
separate locations in Kalamazoo and the surrounding area The victims
ranged in age from 14 to 74.
Dalton continued to pick up riders,
according to reports by WOOD-TV, and drop them off in between the
shootings, which started about 6 p.m. That seemed to be confirmed by a
Kalamazoo man, using the Twitter handle @IamKeithBlack, who tweeted that
he got a ride from Dalton at 8 p.m.
“Lucky to be alive,” he said in a later tweet.
On Sunday night,
mourners gathered at Kalamazoo's Centerpoint Church to remember the
shooting victims Saturday and pray for the survivors.
Lt. Governor
Brian Calley called the shooting a “horrific tragedy” and offered a
prayer, saying, "Help us to show your light when the world is so dark."
