English taxi driver killed 12 people by Magdalena Rosova

Derrick Bird, 52-year old taxi driver, shoot 12 people in Rowrah, northern England. His neighbours and friends have expressed shock that such a “normal bloke” could do something so awful. Media reported that it could have been an argument in family or a row at work that made Bird to overreact. Wednesday morning Bird drove to peaceful district and in a rage shoot 12 people and then killed himself. Police do not yet know the motivation for the attack. The taxi driver did not have any history of mental illness. Some medias reported the reason could be argument in his family over will of his mother. According to the Times newspaper, Bird's twin brother David as wel! l as the family's solicitor Kevin J. Commons were among the victims. Bird's colleague said that Bird quarreled with another driver, few hours before the killings, over queue-jumping in the taxi ranks. Another colleague said that after that Brick had shook all their hands and said that tomorrow there was going to be a rampage. Bird's good friend Peter Ledder also proved that there had been indication that he would do something horrible. Ledder said they had had conversation at Tuesday's midnight and Bird had told him he would not see him again. Bird's neighbours are shocked and said that he was quiet man living alone in the village who worked hard. It seems Bird was a pleasant guy who always had time to say hello and never had been in a bad mood. Therefore no one understand such a change of character. Newspapers reported that he had guns after his father who died years ago.
