Man Kills 5 Family Members, Then Self

Hours after checking out of a Wheeling psychiatric ward, a riverboat pilot shot five family members to death, then killed himself with his last bullet, police said. Mark Storm, 30, who checked into the Ohio Valley Medical Center on Sunday, left Thursday, making plans for a follow-up visit, then went with his family to a party for a neighbor’s daughter. That night, he shot his wife, their two young daughters, his mother and his brother in the head with a 9-millimeter semiautomatic pistol, Police Chief Ed Long said. Long said no motive was known but that Storm suffered from stress and panic disorder and was on leave from his job.
