She apparently was shot when she confronted a vandal at a cellphone tower next to her house, investigators say.
The mysterious death of a woman found fatally shot in the yard of a Fresno County home was the result of her confrontation with a man experiencing delusions about space aliens, the sheriff’s office said.
The killing of Amanda Berry was initially baffling, with few clues as to shooter or motive. The 44-year-old woman was found slain around 7:15 a.m. on Nov. 17 in the yard of a home near the east edge of Fresno. A flashlight lay near her, and a neighbor reported having heard a gunshot around midnight. At the news conference, Assistant Sheriff John Zanoni said the vandal apparently believed the tower was being used by space aliens who were trying to enter his body.The discovery of the alleged shooter came three weeks later, after deputies confronted an armed man on Dec. 6 in a neighborhood two miles from the homicide scene.
