| Description | A man described as angry about child support rulings was shot to death while brandishing an inert hand grenade in the new federal courthouse here, police said.
Hundreds of judges, jurors, employees and prisoners in the 23-story building were evacuated and surrounding streets were cordoned off Monday as dozens of police cars responded, jamming lunchtime traffic.
The man had frequented the courthouse as well as the federal office building and often expressed "a disdain for the federal government as well as some of its policies," U.S. Marshal Eric Robertson said.
According to the report, Manley also had e-mailed the station recently, criticizing the child support system and claiming that millions of noncustodial parents were being illegally impoverished by the government. |
