Gunman obsessed with Dunblane and US mass killings is jailed
A gunman who was accused of planning a mass shooting has been jailed for life after being convicted of a string of weapons, ammunition and explosives charges.
Reed Wischhusen, 32, had a “macabre interest” in the Dunblane gunman Thomas Hamilton, murderer Raoul Moat and US mass killers, and had built firearms and explosives to carry out a “hitman-style attack” on his former school.
In the attack he intended to target 10 people, as well as shoot dead teachers and attack Avon and Somerset Police headquarters.
The warehouse worker, who owned a fake police uniform, wrote down his warped plans in a document heard.
