7. The bastard's dead.

He shot himself.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — A gunman opened fire in two Michigan homes Thursday, killing his daughter, ex-girlfriend and five other people before leading police on a high-speed chase and taking hostages inside a stranger’s home.

The five-hour standoff ended when he killed himself as authorities were telling him how to surrender.
