5. He told the boys to leave and kept the girls. I don't see how they

could say that wasn't a factor. He tied them up and then executed them.

What a horrendous crime.

Truck driver kills three girls in Amish school shooting
POSTED: 1950 GMT (0350 HKT), October 2, 2006
Adjust font size:
PARADISE, Pennsylvania (CNN) -- A 32-year-old truck driver walked into an Amish schoolhouse Monday, binding and shooting three girls execution-style before killing himself, police said Monday.

Seven other girls were wounded in the attack, which police said appeared to be a revenge killing for an incident that occurred two decades ago.

"It seems as though he wanted to attack young female victims, and this is close to his residence. That's the only reason we can figure that he went to the school," said Commander Jeffrey Miller, Pennsylvania State Police.
