I hadn't realized that this was really big news. I guess I always figure stuff that happens in Pittsburgh isn't news worthy. But this happened only 10 minutes from my house. My hubby even talked about joning LA Fitness. We watched this building get built. It used to be a seasonal costume shop. The center is in a strip mall with a bunch of other stores. I can't believe something like this has even happened.

That is really sad. Those poor women. Makes me wonder if anything could have been done for that man to prevent this, but I'm sure he must have had more problems than just being "lonely" to even think about something like this.
ReplyDeleteI saw that on the news. It is really sad. I know where that is at, too. I am really sorry for all of the families.
ReplyDeleteHow awful! I heard about that and didn't realise it was so close to you.
ReplyDeleteYeah, my heart goes out to the families. It's so sad. ANd it's obvious that the man was clearly disturbed. I just wish someone had seen his blog and took it for what it was really worth. This could have been prevented.
ReplyDeleteI was knocked out when my husband called me to let me know what was going on. You know the same thing happened on 9/11. I was out like a light and my bff called me. I was scared since I couldn't find my husband. At the time we were living in MD, near DC, about 30 min. drive.
They're going to open LA fitness soon they say, not sure how soon though. People are taking cards and stuff to the location in memory of the women lost. They also had a mamorial last night.
This is so sad! My heart goes out to the victims and their families!
