Fla. gunman’s motive remains a mystery
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - The life of the gunman who went on a rampage in a fast-food restaurant may have been as chaotic as his final violent act.
Court records and interviews show that Alburn Edward Blake was once accused of kicking a girlfriend who called him “demented.” He somehow married a woman he had never met without her consent, and sometimes used a Social Security number that had belonged to a dead man.
A surveillance video shows Blake entering the Wendy’s during the lunch rush Monday and going straight to the bathroom, authorities said Tuesday. He emerged minutes later and fatally shot a paramedic who had gone back into the restaurant to exchange a kid’s meal toy his child had received.

They say they are no closer to determining what set off Blake, a 60-year-old handyman from Jamaica who lived in West Palm Beach.

Blake married his wife, Deborah, in 1989, according to records, but there is no record they divorced. He also married a woman, Tangela Kemp, in 1987, and wasn’t officially divorced until 1993, records show.

Records show Blake owned a maintenance and handyman company until 2003, but authorities said he is believed to have been unemployed at the time of the shooting. Authorities can’t explain his use of the Social Security number that belonged to a Wisconsin man who died three decades ago.
My bet? Obama arrogance.
