LOS ANGELES (Austin American Statesman) Days after Austin police identified Dr. Bharat Narumanchi as the man behind a hostage standoff in Central Austin that ended in his suicide and the death of pediatrician Dr. Lindley Dodson, a 43-year-old mother of three, his exact motives are still unknown.
But interviews with colleagues and witnesses indicate that terminal illness and a desire to be closer to family members brought him to Austin.
