OWOSSO, Mich. — A real estate agent told he was the third target of a shooting spree that left an abortion protester and a business owner dead said Saturday that he fled his home after the violence.
James Howe of Owosso said his family was upset after police told him he was an intended target of the Friday shooting spree.
“How would you hold up if someone was told you were going to be killed?” Howe said. He declined to say where he and his family were staying.
Howe also declined to say whether he knew Harlan James Drake, 33, who is accused of killing anti-abortion activist James Pouillon and gravel pit owner Mike Fuoss.
Meanwhile, Drake was taken from jail to a hospital to undergo surgery for a self-inflicted wound to his arm, according to a county prosecutor.
“It sounds like he’s going to make it, but it’s a serious gash, a very serious wound to his arm,” said Shiawassee County Prosecutor Randy Colbry.
Colbry said he did not know when Drake cut himself or what he used to do so.
