CORSICANA (AP) — A gunman
nicknamed “Rambo” and dressed in
combat fatigues went on a 30-minute
shooting spree Tuesday, killing
three people and terrifying a restau
rant crowd before killing himself,
police said.
The suspect — identified as Frank
Stewart, 37, of Corsicana — shot
himself in the right temple and later
died, Detective Keith Sykes said.
One of the victims was identified as
Stewart’s estranged wife, Brenda
Stewart.
Navarro County Sheriffs Sgt.
Harry Drain said tne gunman went
to a business on the outskirts of town
and shot and killed his former boss.
Drain identified the business as
Hulcher Services Inc.
He then took a company truck
and went to the Western Sizzlin’
steakhouse, where his wife was a
manager. He entered brandishing
two pistols, threatened the assistant
manager, fired several shots into the
air and left without injuring anyone,
Drain said.
With police in pursuit, the gun
man then drove to his wife’s mobile
home. There he killed a man with 10
shots and then killed his wife, said
Justice of the Peace Badie Stewart,
who is not related to the suspect. Po
lice said the gunman then stepped
outside and shot himself in the head.
Police Sgt. Lewis Palos said, "He
was probably despondent. I don’t
know what — loss of job, estrange
ment of wife. We just don’t know
yet.”
Stewart had worked at Hulcher
until a few weeks ago, Palos said.
No other people were injured in
the shootings, which began shortly
before 2 p.m. and ended about a
half-hour later.
Neighbors said Stewart often
wore fatigues.
“(He) was into that Army stuff
bad,” neighbor Judy Brown said.
“He always wore camouflage.”
She said Stewart was referred to
by his neighbors as Rambo.
Sykes said all three of the shooting
victims suffered multiple gunshot
wounds. He said Stewart used a .22-
caliber automatic revolver and a .38-
caliber handgun in the killings.

six-month trial basis, beginning Jan.

In all the Information being circulated about
clinic-based health plans, a few facts may
have escaped your attention.
For instance, HMO advertising seldom
mentions the limitations imposed on your
ability to see any physician you choose. Or
that these HMO plans offer no dental
coverage whatsoever. Little emphasis is
given to the sparse provisions such plans
make for psychiatric services, or the strict limits
imposed on elective surgery. Texas A&M
employees are rarely told they will be
required to surrender their PCS Card if they
drop their present insurance to join a health
plan.
Nothing is said about the limitations on
hospitals such plans cover. Or about what
these plans won't cover: things like physica;
you may need to obtain a job or a life
insurance policy, psychological testing yci|
child may need for school, even the blood
you may require during surgery. In fact, one
prominent health plan excludes 18 specific
areas of health care from its coverage,
So if the promise of a single monthly
premium that covers all your family's health
care costs sounds too good to be
true...perhaps it is. Just be sure you know of
the facts before you trade your proven
medical insurance for the latest trend in
health care delivery.
