Former Fireman Takes Chief Hostage

Neil McGahee

Tampa Tribune

The gunman had the chief in tight grip with the pistol to his face. The man had been a fireman in the early 60's and had been dismissed from the job. He had pushed for a pension hearing and was denied the money. After the meeting, he went over to the fire dept. and grabbed the chief when he left the building.
