Yesterday ended a chapter in the notorious sniper shooting that occurred in 2002. For several weeks, John Allen Muhammad and teenager Lee Boyd Malvo shot innocent citizens at random, causing terror like never before seen in the Washington D.C. area and surrounding states. People were afraid to go outside and many police organizations flooded the area with law enforcement officers trying to catch the killers. Muhammad a former U.S. Army soldier with his co-assailant outfitted a car so they could hide in the trunk and fire with an assault rifle through a hole from the body of the vehicle. Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine denied a late minute clemency. A Virginia prison spokesperson stated that Muhammad was executed Tuesday by lethal injection and was pronounced dead at 9:11 p. m. ET.
