A retailer that sold a man the two pistols he used to kill 13 people at an upstate immigration services center cannot be held liable for the gunman's rampage, a federal judge determined.
Employees of Gander Mountain did not sell the two firearms to Jiverly Wong between March 2008 and March 2009 until proper background checks had been performed, Northern District Judge Norman Mordue (See Profile) ruled in Al-Salihi v. Gander Mountain, 3:11-cv-00384.
