Prosecutor: Teen in Gay Attack Left Note
Massachusetts Teen Left a Note With Plans for 'Something Violent,' Prosecutor Says

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. Feb 7, 2006 (AP)— Police searching the bedroom of an 18-year-old accused of two slayings and a rampage at a gay bar found a cache of weapons, a homemade poster with a Nazi swastika and a troubling final message.

"We didn't interpret it necessarily as a suicide note, but it was certainly the note of a desperate man who had some plans to continue doing something violent," Bristol County District Attorney Paul Walsh Jr. said Monday.

Robida carried a small arsenal of weapons as he fled a gun-and-hatchet attack at Puzzles Lounge in New Bedford on Thursday, authorities said. A knife was found outside the lounge, and investigators also found 85 rounds of ammunition, a Samurai sword, one knife and two knife sheaths in Robida's room at his home, a police report released Monday said.

Walsh said he believes Robida left the note in his bedroom after the attack at Puzzles Lounge but before he left on a 1,500-mile journey to Arkansas. The contents of the note were not officially released.
