    Every walk of life goes into a hospital, many who don't even want to be treated, so not surprised by the violence, but surprised it was a Doctor who done gone crazy.

    Apparently he has a criminal record. One for sexual abuse.

    His weapon was described as an M-16 type rifle, which I thought NY had passed laws banning "assault rifles". Seems like NY's gun control laws didn't work to prevent a violent offender from obtaining a gun.
