Syrian, Druse artillery bombard
Beirut airport, ambassador’s home
BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) — Shell
fire hit Beirut’s airport Sunday, and
radio reports said' the home of the
U.S. ambassador was struck during
fierce duels between Syrian gunners
and Christian army units. Police re
ported 13 people were killed.
Thunderous explosions rocked
Beirut in what authorities called the
heaviest artillery duel since renewed
fighting erupted March 8.
Syrian and allied Druse gunners
poured more than 8,000 rounds, at a
rate of up to 100 per minute, on east
Beirut and the Christian suburbs
northeast of the city in 24 hours, a
police spokesman said.
Man convicted
of attacking
three cabbies
KILLEEN (AP) — Convicted
murderer Pvt. Dwight J. Loving said
he shot the first of three cab drivers
to see if he could get away with it but
shot the second for fun, a fellow
prisoner told a court-martial panel.
Pvt. Forrest Brown, who had been
a prisoner at Fort Hood Installation
Detention Facility where Loving has
been incarcerated since his Decem
ber arrest, said Loving confessed in
January to killing two Killeen cab
drivers and shooting a third.
Loving said he “did it the first
time to see if he could get away with
it and did it the second time because
it was fun,” Brown told a court-mar
tial panel at Fort Hood Saturday.
The panel was to continue hear
ing presentencing testimony Mon
day against Loving, convicted of rob
bing and murdering two Killeen cab
drivers on the night of Dec. 12 and
morning of Dec. 13. Loving is ac
cused of robbing and attacking a
third cab driver and robbing two
convenience stores the same night.
Loving was convicted Friday of
robbing and shooting to death Fort
Hood Pvt. Christopher Fay, 20, a
part-time cab driver, and Bobby
Sharbino, 44, a retired Fort Hood
soldier, in the taxicabs they were
driving, the Killeen Daily Herald re
ported.
Loving also was convicted of the
robbery and attempted murder of a
third cab driver, Howard Harrison,
28. Although he was bitten on the
head, hand and back while fighting
with Loving in the cab, Harrison
managed to escape from the vehicle
and run to safety, officials said.
Loving also was convicted of rob
bing two 7-Eleven convenience
stores in Killeen that night.
Brown said Loving later told him
“if he had to do it over, the only dif
ference would be that he would not
get caught.”
Brown, who since has been trans
ferred to a Fort Riley, Kan., prison,
initially told authorities about con
versations with Loving when he
asked not to be left alone with him.
Christian soldiers of army com
mander Gen. Michel Aoun struck
back with 155mm howitzers, firing
at least 3,000 rounds on Syrian posi
tions in Moslem west Beirut, the cen
tral mountains and east Lebanon’s
Bekaa valley, the spokesman said.
He said Christian gunners also
blasted the Beirut-Damascus high
way in the mountainous Dahr al-Bai-
dar region in an apparent hid to
block the way of Syrian tanks poised
to roll into Beirut.
The spokesman, who cannot he
named under standing rules, said
eight people were killed and 20
wounded on the Christian side and
live killed and seven wounded in
Moslem west Beirut.
fhe confrontation lias exacer
bated a political crisis that created
competing Christian and Moslem
governments and split the army on
sectarian lines.
“Have mercy on the helpless peo
ple,” pleaded Acting Prime Minister
Salim Moss, who heads a mostly
Moslem Cabinet vying for legitimacv
with Aoun’s Christian Cabinet.
“I appeal to all those pulling gun
triggers to stop shooting at once,
stop this bloodbath, stop this mas
sacre,” he said in an appeal broad
cast by Moslem radio stations.
