My mate Google tells me that he shot and killed 4 black youths on a subway train in NYC.

He claimed they were trying to rob him. I think he was found not guilty of murder.
Maybe

Well... I know he's still alive.

In 1984, so I might have heard about it.

Both from my days of collecting football cards with a piece of chewing gum. RIP.

The card smelled of chewing gum permanently. What memories they would now arouse...!

Anne Hughes, 73

Who?

She was the cleaner who got accidentally caught in the roller shutters of the shop where she worked and was lifted up into the air clutching her shopping trolley a couple of years ago. What I liked about her was that she seemed to find the whole thing as funny as everyone else. Died just before Christmas, I think

Not popularly known, but brilliant and influential Hungarian director Béla Tarr has died aged 70. An arthouse legend.
