[
A charity gala in the Capital went very badly this week. A sniper opened fire on the guests at the height of the evening's festivities, killing two inside the building and two members of the 'security team' in a building across the street. The suspect then drove off in pursuit of three party guests, including a reputable member of the local business community, and ran the car off the end of the docks into the water. The passenger's bodyguard was killed, but he and his driver survived.
Witnesses report seeing the 'eminent citizen' exchanging gunfire with the suspect chasing him. Strangely enough, this goes unmentioned in official police reports, as do the citizen's ties to the Russian mob. The suspect has yet to be identified, though rumors have linked him to two earlier shootings. These include the assumed
team that took out Russian mobsters at a tea room last month. Anyone with information is encouraged to come forward.]
