Saturday, July 26, 2008
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. The ex-wife of a gunman fatally shot by police outside a central Pennsylvania radio station says the man struggled with bipolar disorder.
Coroner Scott Sayers says the gunman is 50-year-old Brian Neiman of Pottersdale.
Police say Neiman was killed Friday after he fired at officers and tried to run them over with his vehicle outside a radio station in State College.
Jean Neiman of Mifflin County says her ex-husband became angry when he didn't take his medication. She says they used to listen to the Christian station together before divorcing in 2006.
Police got a tip that an armed man was heading to the station and stopped him outside. No one at the station was injured.
