Nope, it wasn't. However, the incident was very isolated/localized. The weapon was a 22 caliber rifle that was used by a jealous ex-husband to shoot his wife's new boyfriend (and later himself) while the guy was changing his tire by the side of the road. It's been suggested that the shooter messed up the guy's car on purpose, so the man would have to stop to fix it... and the guy just walked up and shot him from behind. The man wouldn't have had time to respond anyway, even if he had had a gun.

The last murder that took place (2 years ago) was a stabbing, which is much more common here.
