20-year-old mass murderer Lawrence Moore bursts into the tavern during a Ladies Night and opens fire with a 9mm Browning HP handgun, killing four and injuring 20 in Oregon Museum Tavern, Front Street NE, Salem, Oregon, United States. Moore stated the reason for the shooting that he was trying to get members of a 'syndicate' of millionaires, Jews and criminals who had been trying to poison him.
