The Beltway Snipers. Washington, D.C. October, 2002. Fear grips the beltway as random people are shot dead in public by a hidden shooter. Parking lots and gas stations were no longer safe. A single gunshot would be heard and then someone would fall. Five were shot dead on October 3rd alone. Men, women, and even kids were targets for whoever was behind the attacks. For more than 20 days, the attacks and even taunts from the killer continued until a call alerted authorities to the location of the two responsible for the crimes.
