(
Olathe) 51 Year old Adam W. Purinton, took umbrage at 2 Indian
citizens enjoying some down time at Austin's Bar and Grill at 7:15 p.m this
past Wednesday. Screaming "get out of my country" he pulled out a
pistol and emptied it into Srinivas Kuchibhotla, a 32-year-old Garmin employee,
who was killed. Alok Madasani, 32, who also worked for Garmin, and Ian Grillot, a
24-year-old Grandview resident who tried to stop the shooter, were injured.

Realizing what he had just done, dickhead then decided to do
a runner to Clinton, Missouri, where he related to a barkeep at a Applebees
just what he had done. The police picked him up not long after. According to
witnesses at the bar, Purinton had been shouting racial slurs before being
asked to leave. Witnesses said he shouted “get out of my country” before
shooting at Kuchibhotla and Madasani. He had previously left the bar and
returned with a weapon.

Purinton, of Olathe has been charged with first-degree
murder and two counts of attempted first-degree murder. Whilst Kansas does
have the death penalty , nobody has been executed there since 1976. Personally
I feel now would be a good time to start again.
