N.H. man shoots up Lynn eatery


By Robin Kaminski / The Daily Item

LYNN -- A New Hampshire man who was denied service at a Chinese restaurant Saturday, left in a rage and returned with an AK-47, opening fire at customers and employees, police said.

Anthony Gobbi, 30, of 90 Burley Park Drive, East Wakefield, NH, was charged with 15 counts of assault with intent to murder, carrying a firearm without a license, discharging a firearm within 500 feet of a building, unlawful possession of ammunition, carrying a loaded, high-capacity firearm, carrying a loaded firearm.

Gobbi is expected to be arraigned today at Lynn District Court.

According to police, employees at China Lion at 8 Market St., refused to serve Gobbi alcohol around 12:15 a.m., because he was believed to have been intoxicated. Angry for being denied service, Gobbi stormed out of the establishment and reportedly returned with the high-powered rifle and began firing shots.

Police say customers and employees managed to tackle Gobbi to the ground and wrestled the rifle away from him. No injuries were reported.

No further information was released by police Sunday night.
 
If he's responsible enough to have a gun, obviously he's responsible enough to have liquor.*

Are you fucking retarded?
"carrying a firearm without a license"
He was never deemed responsible to have that gun and was also deemed not responsible to have any alcohol at that time.
 
Holy shit. He unloaded an AK-47 in a restaurant and they were able to tackle him without any injuries? I would think even someone drunk would be able to hit something in that situation.

EPIC Fail.

I prefer to think of it as epic win, but I know you're meaning the same thing I was saying.

Yeah, Born2bwire you're an idiot.

Actually, I bet that charge will be dropped. Not that what this guy did doesn't deserve to be punished. In his state you only need a permit to carry handguns. The law doesn't include rifles.

In any case, I hope they lock him up for a long long time for being such an idiot.
 
Glad no one was hurt and that the crowd was able to disarm him.

EPIC Fail.

Unless, contrary to the article where it states he was shooting at them, he did not directly intend to harm them, but rather scare the living hell out of them in a dangerous, reckless manner. I mean... how could he NOT hit anyone at that range with a semi-auto rifle?

Man, alcohol drives some people to do crazy things sometimes (likely merely an insanity enhancer).

That still leaves plenty of charges... like 15 counts of assault with intent to murder...

It happened in Massachusetts. If it was NH, all of these would not apply:

unlawful possession of ammunition
carrying a loaded, high-capacity firearm
carrying a loaded firearm.

You also don't need a permit in NH for open carry of a handgun.

A likely story to try and support a bunch of trumped up charges. If it was illegal, he wouldn't have a gun in the first place. Christ, try doing some thinking.
 
wow. just wow.

I know what you're thinking but it's the truth. All this story is really about is a bunch of liberal hippies coming down on a guy because he chose to exercise his second amendment rights. If anything, the liquor store should submit a public apology. Where do they get off judging their customers to the extent that they think they do not have right to buy themselves a nice bottle of Wild Irish Rose?

Ahhh i didn't catch that, I just read NH.
 
apparently, after he was interrogated, the conclusion was that he was obviously a resentful american who tried to blame a black man for the crime.

he also refused to get netflix streaming and downloaded "things" off the internet.
