When authorities came to the home, they also found the grandfather's body in a freezer, deputies said

2 dead, 5 injured after shooting at Wendy's near West Palm Beach
2 dead, 5 injured after shooting at Wendy's near West Palm Beach

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A 60-year-old gunman wearing a jacket and tie wordlessly opened fire inside a Wendy's during the lunchtime rush Monday, killing a firefighter who'd returned to exchange a toy and wounding five other diners.
Alburn Edward Blake of West Palm Beach then turned the gun on himself.
"This was not a robbery. He didn't demand anything," said Paul Miller, a Palm Beach County sheriff's spokesman. "Looks like this was just another random shooting like we've seen around the United States."
The 42-year-old victim, Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue Lt. Rafael Vazquez, had met his wife and child at the restaurant, Deputy Fire-Rescue Chief Steve Delai said. The family had just left, but Vazquez returned to exchange a promotional toy in his child's meal and was shot in the back as he stood at the counter, Delai said.
A witness said the police took out a bag of pills from his apartment. Is this another case of a known mentally ill person with guns? I don't know. No one does right now but I'm sure there will be more reports. I do know that the people who were at Wendy's will need to get some help with this. Think of what you'd be like going through something like this.

Neighbors described Blake as a quiet man who "kept to himself." Public records show that Blake owned a maintenance and handyman company until 2003. A 1996 story in The Palm Beach Post showed that he accidentally ran over an 18-month-old girl with his van, leaving her seriously injured. The story said he had a young daughter who would now be a teenager.
