The shooter rushed into the open ground of the next section, and, turning, fired another shot. The people rushed inside and barred their doors.
At Ashhurst the residents are in a great state of alarm. Powelka is alleged to have threatened to blow up P. Hanlon's (his brother-in-law), a wellknown local resident.
Mrs Powelka is expecting to become a mother, and is terrified.
