Man, woman killed on Michigan campus
ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — A University of Michi
gan police officer shot a man to death early yesterday
as the man attacked a woman student with a knife out
side the apartment they shared. The woman also died.
Responding to 911 calls, the officer drove into a
parking lot on the school’s north campus shortly af
ter midnight. The officer spotted the man as he
stabbed the woman, and he shot the man when he
refused to stop, campus public safety director Leo
Heatley said.
The woman was identified as Tamara Williams, a 20-
year-old senior. Her killer was identified as Kevin Nel
son, 26, who lived with Williams but was not affiliated
with the university.
Both died in surgery at the University of Michigan
Medical Center.
A resident of the complex said she heard at least two
gunshots.
“It was just like that: Bang! Bang!” Marlys Deen said.
She had heard people arguing loudly in the parking
lot and then heard someone shout: “She’s dead. Get the
police. She’s dead.”
Nelson began stabbing Williams in the basement
of their apartment, Heatley said.
“She was able to get to a neighbor’s home and
knock on the window,” he said.
The officer, whose identity was not released, found
Williams lying on the ground as Nelson repeatedly
stabbed her, Heatley said.
The university has about 35,000 students on two
campuses in Ann Arbor, about 35 miles west of De
troit. It also has campuses in Flint and Dearborn.

At least 200 dead, 100 injured in Algerian uprising
jumamem
ALGIERS, Algeria (AP) — At
tackers shot or stabbed to death at
least 200 people and wounded 100
more early yesterday, taking their
time plundering homes before re
treating, survivors and hospital
sources said in describing the lat
est violence in Algeria.
The attack took place in the
Bentalha neighborhood of Baraki,
an eastern suburb of the Algerian
capital, the sources said, speaking
on condition of anonymity.
The official government news
agency said 85 people died and 67
were wounded. It condemned the
massacre as an “act of barbary”
carried out by “terrorists.”
“We kept watch every night since
August, but the attack surprised us,”
said one mother who was searching
for her child at the Zemirli d’El Har-
rach hospital. She spoke on condi
tion of anonymity.
Violence in Algeria
In a pre-dawn attack on Tuesday, attackers shot or stabbed to death
at least 200 people and wounded 100 others near Baraki. A bomb
attack in Reghaia killed
two and wounded 25.

A bomb attack yesterday in
Reghaia, a town 19 miles east of Al
giers, also killed two and wounded
25, the hospital sources added.
Nobody claimed responsibility
for either attack. The Bentalha neigh
borhood is considered a stronghold
for Islamic militants close to the
Armed Islamic Group, a group often
blamed for massacres and one of the
most violent Muslim organizations
trying to overthrow Algeria’s military-
backed government.
The banned Islamic Salvation
Front condemned the attack.
According to survivors, two
groups of about 40 attackers each
took their time killing people and
robbing homes before fleeing.
After the massacre, panicked
residents began fleeing toward
downtown Algiers, about 12 miles
away. Soldiers surrounded the
area, allowing only ambulances
and official vehicles to go in.
A bomb explosion in July in
Baraki killed about 20 people and
injured 40 more.
Following a series of massacres
in the capital and in rural villages,
self-defense groups have sprung
up to try to prevent increasingly
frequent massacres.
Armed villagers backed by the
army said they fought off an early-
morning assault by a group ofsus-
pected Islamic militants in a#
lage south of the capital.

IcKinney e:
JERUSALEM (AP) —The Jewish New Year is
traditionally a time of frenetic shopping, but this
year the malls are half-deserted.
Israelis, who have earned a reputation for
courage in the face of war and terrorism, have
retreated to their homes in the wake of two re
cent bombings, keeping their children away
from Jerusalem’s malls, the downtown center
and even the zoo.
Despair and confusion are pervasive. One fre
quently heard complaint is that Israel is being
bombed both when the peace process is moving
forward and when it is deadlocked.
“Terror is more frightening when you’re not
going anywhere in the political process,” Hemi
Shalev, an Israeli commentator for the daily
Maariv newspaper, said.
The heart of the shopping district in
Jerusalem is the Ben Yehuda pedestrian mall,
which — until a suicide bombing there Sept. 4 —
was packed with tourists and Israelis from noon
until midnight.
The relative emptiness of the streets is partic
ularly noticeable in the traditionally busy shop

Eran Moore, the manager of Sbarro, a New toil

ordering pizza and looking around in every diK
