May 18, 200520 yr I'm no forensics expert.. but isn't it kinda hard to mistake a gun shot wound for an aneurysm...?? http://www.cleveland.com/crime/plaindealer...8330.xml&coll=2 Turnpike scene haunts motorist Patrol still seeking Pa. doctor's killer Wednesday, May 18, 2005 Damian Guevara and Rachel Dissell Plain Dealer Reporters Broadview Heights - With Friday evening falling, a westbound motorist on the Ohio Turnpike stopped for two women screaming and frantically waving for aid on the side of the road. Dr. Gulam Moonda, 65, sat back in the passenger seat of a gold 2000 Jaguar, blood covering a quarter-inch bullet wound on his face. So shocked were Moonda's companions - his wife, Donna, and his mother- in-law, Dorothy Smouse - they couldn't speak, according to the motorist, who spoke to The Plain Dealer on condition of anonymity. Moonda's wife tried to revive him while the confused motorist used a cell phone to call police, telling a dispatcher that he thought the man perhaps had "an aneurysm or something." The chilling scene continues to haunt him, the motorist said Tuesday. "I thought I was doing the right thing by stopping and helping," he said. Moonda, a urologist from the Western Pennsylvania town of Hermitage, had been shot between his right eye and ear in a homicide that remains unsolved. The family, heading to Toledo, pulled over to switch drivers about 6:30 p.m., the State Highway Patrol said. They were three miles from the nearest exit, Interstate 71 in Strongsville. A dark van stopped behind them. The van's driver, toting a handgun, accosted Moonda outside the car and took money, said Lt. Rick Zwayer, a patrol spokesman. On the passenger side of the car, the bandit ordered Moonda back into the Jaguar and fired. Moonda was pronounced dead by workers from a LifeFlight helicopter. More at link..
