Terrence Brooks Norman (born 1949) was a Kent State University student allegedly involved in the Kent State shootings. ==The shooting== Norman was a junior at the University when soldiers from the Ohio National Guard killed four students and wounded others during a May 4, 1970 protest. Norman was present at the protest and was photographing the demonstrators for both the campus police and the FBI, a fact that was initially denied by both agencies but later confirmed. After the shooting, Sylvester Del Corso, the Ohio National Guard's top general, released a public statement claiming that Norman had admitted firing four shots at the demonstrators in self-defense. He later backed off from that statement. There were several reasons why Norman was suspected of starting the tragedy: * Norman was the only person on campus other than a Guardsman known to have been armed with a weapon; * The Guard continued to insist that a single shot of unknown origin preceded the 13-second volley of gunfire; and * There had been a previous and never-fully-explained incident on Blanket Hill in which Norman drew his gun and pointed it at students. Norman had scuffled with some fellow students and reportedly drawn his gun before being chased by several men across the campus to the campus police and National Guard. One of his pursuers, graduate student Harold Reid, yelled, "Stop that man! He has a gun." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Terry Norman」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
