The terminally ill doctor suspected of bursting into an Austin, Texas children s medical office Tuesday and killing a physician and himself may have been involved in a domestic dispute with his wife years earlier.
Dr. Bharat Narumanchi, 43, went to the Children’s Medical Group and displayed a gun and took several people inside all adults hostage. After an hours-long standoff, SWAT officers found him and Dr. Katherine Lindley Dodson dead.
