OWOSSO, Mich. – A man carrying grudges against several people set off on a shooting spree Friday morning, authorities said, killing an abortion protester outside a high school because he didn't like the activist holding a sign with graphic images of a fetus in front of students.
The gunman drove next to a gravel pit business and shot and killed the owner, who apparently also upset him, police said. Authorities believe they stopped a third slaying by catching up with the gunman before he could kill again.
"The defendant had ill will toward these three individuals — not for the same reason necessarily, but had a grudge," said Shiawassee County Prosecutor Randy Colbry.
Police charged Harlan James Drake, 33, with first-degree murder. He was arraigned by video without an attorney and ordered held without bond. Authorities said he was a truck driver who mostly lived on the road in his cab and had family in the area, but they were mystified by what may have led him to kill.
"Out of a two-month period, he might be here for two days. We have no history of local contact with him," said sheriff's Det. Lt. David Kirk. "It becomes a mystery to us why today all of this transpired."
The shootings started around 7:20 a.m. across the street at Owosso High School, as parents dropped off students before class. James Pouillon, a well-known activist in the town, was standing across the street with a sign that pictured a chubby-cheeked baby with the word "LIFE" on one side and an image of an aborted fetus with the word "ABORTION" on the other.
Pouillon, known as "the sign man" for his years of in-your-face protests against abortion, was a polarizing figure in Owosso, a town of 15,000 best known as the birthplace of 1948 Republican presidential candidate Thomas Dewey. While inhaling oxygen from a small tank, he could usually be seen with his anti-abortion signs outside schools, the library, city hall, even football games.
"His dedication to his cause was unprecedented," said Tony Young, who tangled with Pouillon during protests outside his car dealership.
The county's chief assistant prosecutor, Sara Edwards, said there didn't appear to be a "triggering event" but Pouillon's presence outside the school seemed to aggravate Drake. It was "the fact that he was outside the high school with his signs in front of children going to school," she said.
The shots came as students and some horrified parents and students watched. The gunman fired several shots from the window of his vehicle as he drove past the school, authorities said.
"I was reading the paper and heard four shots," said Janet Drake, 68, who lives across from the school and is no relation to the alleged gunman. "Those kids have problems with their cars. I thought it was a backfire."
Drake then drove seven miles and down a dead-end country road to Fuoss Gravel Co. and killed Mike Fuoss, 61, who owned the gravel business, said Shiawassee County Sheriff George Braidwood. The two men knew each other, but authorities didn't detail what may have led to his slaying.
Lisa Merkel, Fuoss' sister-in-law, said other family members told her that the suspect's mother worked at the gravel company more than a decade ago.
Someone wrote down Drake's license plate number after Pouillon's shooting and called police, who arrested him before he could fulfill a plan to kill a third man in town, Colbry said. Drake told authorities he was involved in Fuoss' slaying when they questioned him, authorities said.
Linda Strieff was Fuoss' longtime neighbor, and stared at the roped-off crime scene in disbelief.
"That's what's puzzling everybody," Strieff said. "What happened? Why'd the guy snap?"
The shootings come a little more than three months after the slaying of late-term abortion provider George Tiller at his Kansas church. A man with a long history of anti-abortion views, Scott Roeder, has pleaded not guilty to the slaying, and has told The Associated Press that Tiller's killing was justified to save "the lives of unborn children."
Operation Rescue president Troy Newman said Pouillon was a member of the anti-abortion group, adding that he wept Friday when he received word that his friend had been killed. "He was just a kind, gentle man who loved life and endeavored to save other people's lives," Newman said.
The Rev. Rodger DeVore, pastor of the Church of the Nazarene, said Pouillon never seemed to tire and even protested outside the church.
"He did not attend a church because he felt pastors were not strong enough in their defense of the aborted child," DeVore said. "I told him, 'Jim, everyone has to fight in their own armor. You have your approach and we have our approach.' We agreed to disagree."
Pouillon protested for years in front of Tony Young's car dealership, Young Chevrolet Cadillac, holding up anti-abortion slogans and graphic photos. The Michigan Court of Appeals in 1997 struck down a preliminary injunction restricting the protests and he continued until about five years ago.
"This is a guy who put himself out there every day ... for a cause he believed in, and (he) took a hell of a lot of abuse," said lawyer Michael Gildner, who represented Pouillon in a case that reached the federal appeals court. "It angered people, upset people on occasion. That's what free speech is all about."

I just had a dream about viscous bears wanting to maul me. But this guy is more like a muscle bear though. Interesting coincidence non the less.
-
hmm, he killed two, hardly a 'trend', let alone a 'spree'. P.I.P.
-
that's irony for you. Mr Drake is the very person that should have been aborted 33 years ago then we wouldn't be dealing with this idiot now...

That's why you keep your mouth shut and don't be an asshole when you live in the South. People a friendly for the most part but if you piss off a "good ol boy" as we call it, they'll just hold a grudge in until the time is right or they get drunk and then they whip out the shotgun one day and start taking care of business.
As far as the gravel pit owner I don't know but the anti-abortionist person was an idiot for standing outside a school. Most 'necks are mostly anti-abortion but if you mess with the children, then you better watch out.
When you're in the South, show Southern Hospitality....Billy Guns almost learned that the hard way and if he keeps screwing around then he might not have another chance.
Of course this happened in Michigan but I garrantee that this guy is from the South or has relative from the South

Take the 1891 family picture of the Hatfield's for example. Half of them are brandishing firearms which should tell you something. They even got a little kid on the right wielding a Army Revolver After the picture, they torched the Photographer's place if I'm not mistaken

From what I was loosely told by Billy, he was at a local diner and was making insults to the establishment. There was also another incident in NC but I'm not going to get into any details

vince you must be the first black man to admire white people i ever seen.

I certainly don't admire the Hatfields. They were the ones that formed a Confederate Guerilla Fighting Unit. I wouldn't even be surprised if they shot some of my family because they were gunning down people left and right in 4 states.

lol.
anyways, those fucking abortion photos piss me off almost to the point of ramming the car that has them glued on. i started a thread about these assholes a while back; yes, we all get that abortion is murder, but i don't need to see 3ft x 5 ft photos of a fetus being squashed with tongs.

I'm very pro-abortion...just not once the little fucker has a face and shit, except in the cases of individuals like Vince, who are good candidates for abortion NOW.
Perhaps one of the descendants from the old Hatfield family could arrange that.

Abortions are something familiar to your workforce. I bet you force them to do it in fear that they won't be able to stomp on fruit in high heels as well.
