Apparently acting on a long-held paranoid grudge, Hickey came armed to an RV park as a former resident, sought out a specific general manager, and wounded him with gunfire. He then settled into randomly shooting throughout the park and paused at a picnic table to reload. He was shot to death by county and state police.
