Massacre is 2nd Killeen-area mass killing
Friday, November 6, 2009
KILLEEN, Texas — The shooting at Fort Hood was the second mass shooting to strike the Killeen community.
On Oct. 16, 1991, 23 people were fatally shot by George Hennard, who drove his pickup through a plate-glass window of a Luby's Cafeteria. Hennard used his last bullet to kill himself as police closed in.
A military mental health doctor opened fire at the Fort Hood Army post on Thursday. Authorities say the gunman and 11 others were killed and 31 were wounded. The violence was believed to be the worst mass shooting in history at a U.S. military base.
