Then Unruh barricaded himself in a second-storey room and, allot it out with D0 policemen. A tear ga: barrage smoked him out 45 minutes after the first shot. Un- ruh surrendered silently.

Unruh himself was wounded slightly in u» buttock during the battle with the policemen, but the wound was not discovered until 8QV€PBi,h0l1l'l later,» th: police station.

In his room, police found a well- worn Bible, opened at chapter 24 of the Gospel according to , at. Matthew.

The passage read:

"And ye shall hear of war: end rumor: of were: aee that y: be not troubled: for all those thing: must come to pass but the and is not yet . . . ."

Some rlei hbor: said Unruh often walked c street: thumbing through his Bible.’

lvfltchall H. Cohen. Camden County prosecutor, told reporters after grilling Unruh for two and one-half hours that “thi: was the most helnou: crime in Camden police history."

He said Unruh told him the shootings were part of “a precon- ceived plan" and that the war veteran “could clearly remember every detail of every shooting."

He said murder charges hide been lodged against Unruh.

Cohen quoted the killer a: cay- lng in an oral statemen‘:

The show is an annual event sponsored by the society of Brit- ish aircraft constructors. Foreign buyers were encouraged with a view to exceeding Britain's tar- get export figure of £35.000.000 ($i40.000.000) for thi: year.
