Private Security Guard Kills U.S. Soldiers

TAMPA (CN) - After firing a guard who threatened to kill U.S. soldiers, a private security firm rehired him and he shot to death two GIs in Afghanistan, the families claim in court.
Three other people were wounded by Tundra Strategies employee Shia Ahmed, an Afghan citizen Tundra armed with an AK-47 and body armor, the families claim in Federal Court.
Families of the late Rudy Acosta and Donald Mickler Jr. sued Tundra Strategies, the Tundra Group, Robert MacIntyre and MacIntyre Family Holdings for wrongful death.
Co-plaintiffs Chris Hemwall, Patrick Shelley and Zackary Hombel were wounded in the March 19, 2011 shootings at Forward Operating Base Frontenac.
