One more!!!! Colo. man held after rampage United Press International - February 27, 1998 17:32 %DOMESTIC %US %RAMPAGE V%UPI P%UPI ALMA, Colo., Feb. 27 (UPI) - A Colorado man is being held by police after he allegedly shot and killed the former mayor of Alma, then drove a front-end loader on a rampage through the town. Sheriff's deputies say 50-year-old Thomas Leask, a former Alma city worker, allegedly shot and killed former Mayor William Morrison Thursday night. They say Leask then drove a front-end loader through the town's post office and through doors at the town's fire station, water department and town hall before going home and setting fire to his own house. He then took off into the woods, where he held deputies at bay for nearly four hours before surrendering early today. Authorities say they still aren't sure what sparked the alleged killing and rampage but say Leask recently resigned from his job in the small Rocky Mountain town, about 100 miles southwest of Denver. Molotov cocktails were reportedly found inside the town hall, but police say they don't know if Leask put them there, or if he intended to ignite them. Leask is being held at the Park County Detention Center in Fairplay, Colo. -- Copyright 1998 by United Press International. All rights reserved. --
