UK - 30 years since the Hungerford Massacre

30 years on from Hungerford - the wounds Michael Ryan left on the town and its people are still raw

Trevor Wainwright was off duty the day that a loner brought tragedy to his sleepy Berkshire town. As the local PC, he knew everyone on his beat; but who could have had any inkling that 27-year-old Michael Ryan - an unemployed handyman, who lived with his mother - would commit mass murder on such a scale that it is still synonymous with the name Hungerford, three decades on.

Saturday will mark the 30th anniversary of Ryan’s nihilistic killing spree, in which he fatally shot 16 people and wounded 15 more, in one afternoon.

As tragic as it was, that was a touching article.
