Man Accused of Huffing Kills Fiancée

From the Appeal Democrat in California:

Last month, a 21 year-old member of the U.S. Air Force received punishment for a “huffing” related incident. The punishment included: “demotion to Airman Basic, losing a half month's pay for two months, forfeiture of the firearm he used as a Security Forces member, 45 days of extra duty and a letter of reprimand.”

Two days later police say that he “killed his fiancée and then fled before being killed himself.”

His fiancée graduated this past spring and then moved to California to be with him. Police believe they got into an argument at a party and that he shot her later that night. He then “wounded a fellow airman outside before fleeing the area.” Police confronted the man the next day and “he was shot to death after firing at officers.”
