SALLISAW (AP) — A
teenager upset by complaints
about his driving shot four
neighbors, including a 2-year-
old girl, then went on a 20-mile
shooting spree, apparently tar-
geting people at random, police
said. Two of the victims died.
Daniel Fears, 18. was arrest-
ed after losing control of his
pickup truck and crashing near
a police roadblock, authorities
said. As police cars surrounded
him. he threw out a 20 gauge
shotgun and surrendered, said
Oklahoma State Bureau of
Investigation spokeswoman
Kym Koch.
Fears faces two charges of
first-degree murder and is ex-
pected to appear before a judge
Monday, said Sequoyah County
District Attorney Diane Barker-
Harrold
Fears is a candidate for the
death penalty in Oklahoma, but
Barker-Harrold said prosecutors
haven’t decided if they w ill seek
it.
Authorities hadn't deter-
mined a motive for the Saturday
rampage, hut police said they
believed Fears became angry
when a neighbor scolded him
for driving recklessly in the
middle-class neighborhood.
"A man got onto him for
driving erratically because he
said he almost hit some kids."
Koch said.
Some people in Sullisaw
wondered if Fears was mimick-
ing the vniper attacks in the
Washington area.
“I think it’s a copy cat thing."
said Camellia Conley, an em-
ployee at the Blue Ribbon
Motor Inn in Sallisaw. "He's
been a rebel w ithout a cause. He
was always a loner, and always
wore a black trench coat."
