Breaking News...

What is it with Guys in trenchcoats and guns?

This story is still unfolding, so we don't know a lot of details. Right now, we don't know who the gunmen are/were, nor anything about their motives.

The good news, there was only one gunman. The bad news - he's dead, so we are left to guess at his motives for now.

(For bonus points, please explain how your reasoning will apply to someone whose psychological state is unlikely to map well into the understanding of a middle aged lawyer cum politician)
