Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

Huberty shot and killed 21 people and injured 19 others in and outside the restaurant in a 78min shooting spree with a 9mm Browning semi-automatic pistol, a 9mm Uzi and a Winchester 12 gauge pump-action shotgun. Huberty also carried a cloth bag filled with hundreds of rounds of ammunition for each weapon. Within two days of the mass shooting the San Ysidro Boulevard restaurant had been refurbished and renovated, and was again open for business in the hope that—as one employee commented—the restaurant would become "just another McDonald's." The newly renovated restaurant was razed on July 28.

Fred Perez aka Freddie Bell is shot dead by serial killer Herbert Mullin aka The Hippie Killer at the age of 71 in Santa Cruz, California, United States.

Mullin was driving alone when he drove past Perez who was weeding his lawn. For no apparent reason Mullin made a U-turn, stopped his station wagon and laid his rifle across the hood to aim, killing Perez instantly. Then he got back into his car and 'calmly' drove off. It was broad daylight and there were a number of witnesses, one of whom gave police the license plate number. A 'docile' Mullin was captured a few minutes later.
