The San Ysidro McDonald's Massacre

from Murder Sheet

On a warm afternoon in the summer of 1984, James Huberty, a disturbed man with a gun decided to go hunting humans. He ended up in a popular neighborhood McDonald's, where he shot to death 21 people-- including a truck driver nearing retirement, two young boys taking a break from a bike ride and and a teenage mother with her infant in her arms. Panicked people inside the restaurant play dead and hide in closets, praying the police will mount a rescue before the gunman discovers them. But the SWAT team is stuck in traffic-- will more people die before help finally arrives? The San Diego Tribune's interview with Huberty's daughter:https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/opinion/the-conversation/sdut-daughter-mcdonalds-killer-james-huberty-interview-2015dec15-story.htmlCrime scene footage of the aftermath of the massacre.
