Police today found the body of a gunman who shot dead at least 12 people after going on a bloody rampage in the Lake District.
Derrick Bird, a divorced father-of-two, was discovered in woodland near Boot, Cumbria, by police. The 52-year-old had shot himself.
Witnesses today described horrific scenes as the cab driver shot his victims in the head at point blank range and gunned down others at random through the shattered windscreen of his car.
It is understood he deliberately targeted three of his colleagues after arguing with them last night.
