A woman identified at Bonnie Tsao, wife of shooting victim Tony Tsao, (center) weeps and is comforted by family members, social workers, and police outside the Ya Fei Chinese restaurant in Robinson as the Allegheny County Coroner's van drives away with the two victims of the shooting at the restaurant Friday afternoon. Her son, Chris, 5, is at front.

Chris Pham, 5, is comforted by his mother Bonnie Pham after breaking down during a news conference . Chris's father, Thao Q. Pham was shot and killed at the Ya Fei Chinese Cuisine restaurant.

Pham, 27, of Castle Shannon, was a deliveryman at Ya Fei Chinese Cuisine at Robinson Town Centre. He was attacked inside the restaurant in front of customers.


Anil Thakur, 31, in the United States on a work permit, was shot dead at the India Grocer store. He originally was from Bihar, India, and has no known relatives in the US. He worked WideCom Group, a Canada-based producer of copiers and scanners. His boss described him as an "almost stereotypical" eldest Indian son in his dedication to supporting his family, meaning his retired parents as well as his wife and two young children. Thakur was a senior computer engineer here originally scheduled to return to India a week before he was shot, but his company asked him to stay longer.

Ji-ye Sun

Sun, 34, of Churchill, was the manager of the restaurant. He also was shot in front of onlookers.

A woman who answered the phone at his house said, "I don't think we can talk about this right now. We are in a very, very bad mood."

 

 

Garry Lee

Lee, 22, was a beginning student at the C.S. Kim School of Karate in Center, Beaver County. He had gone to work out with his best friend when he was shot.

The manager of the supermarket where Lee worked refused to talk about Lee, and his friend could not be located later. Police also refused to answer questions about Lee.

Sandip Patel

Patel, 25, is manager of the India Grocer. He was shot in the neck and suffered paralysis.

Doctors operated on him for two hours to remove the bullet. He was in critical condition last night, but his vital signs had stabilized, said Linda Ross, a spokeswoman at Mercy Hospital.

 

Nicki Gordon

Gordon, 63, was shot dead yesterday at the beginning of a killing rampage that police believe was committed by Richard Baumhammers. He is suspected of killing four more people after Gordon, who was his next-door neighbor when he was growing up in Mt. Lebanon.

Gordon, born Anita B. Horvitz on Nov. 22, 1936, was Jewish. After she was slain, investigators believe, Baumhammers attacked two synagogues, including Beth El Congregation in Scott, where a swastika was smeared on a brick wall and glass doors were shot out.
