Family Shot

On Wednesday around 4:30 Rick Smith gunned down a home. He shot and killed a 65 year old grandmother, 3 boys between the ages of 5 and 1, and a couple around the ages of 25. Rick went on a rampage throughout this home leaving only one survivor, a 6 year old girl. She was in critical condition when he carried the girl over to the neighbors home. He left her there and took off, only to be caught hours later. Rick was caught up with  around 7:30 and began to shoot at police. He was then shot and was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital around 10:10.  Police were unable to explain the possible motive Rick had to gun down this small home in Manchester. The police were completely puzzled when they had learned that he had carried the injured girl to the neighbors home; he had killed her whole family. Of course no one could completely explain the incident. A family member of Rick's said that he was going through a rough divorce and custody battle with his 4 year old child. The 6 year old survivor is recovering and will be put into a home of another family member.
