Guitarist Darrell Lance Abbott Shot

*today i want to share the murder of a gutair legend,

dimebag darrell (aka darrell abott) from the band pantera

in this footage you can see the perpetrator shoot three people,

then a police officer shoots the man.

sorry the footage is so low quality this is from 2004

you can hear somebody in the background say “He killed Dimebag!”*

"On December 8, 2004, Damageplan was performing at the Alrosa Villa nightclub in Columbus, Ohio. Nathan Gale, a deranged fan,[109] rushed onto the stage as the band played the first song of its setlist and shot Abbott multiple times with a Beretta 92FS, a 9mm semi-automatic pistol.[110] The band's head of security, Jeffrey "Mayhem" Thompson, then tackled Gale, but was fatally shot in the ensuing struggle. A fan, Nathan Bray, was also killed as he attempted to aid Abbott and Thompson, as was Erin Halk, an employee of the venue who tried to disarm Gale while he was reloading. Three others were wounded before Columbus police officer James Niggemeyer entered the club and shot Gale once in the head with a 12-gauge Remington Model 870, killing him."

Sheesh. I didn’t realize there was footage of this. Nothing more terrifying than an active shooter aiming at a crowded mosh pit. You’re fish in a barrel at that point

He was directed at Dime for leaving Pantera, he was a deranged fan who was mad that a band split up.

I remember seeing it about two weeks after it happened. Probably the third gore type video I ever saw.
