I’m no hero, says man who jumped to defend Indians shot in Kansas bar

A man has been charged with murder and attempted murder, for allegedly opening fire in a bar outside Kansas City. One person was killed and two were wounded. Ian Grillot, who survived the shooting, described what happened from his hospital bed. A bartender at Austins Bar and Grill in Olathe, Kansas, said that Adam Purinton used “racial slurs” before he started shooting on Wednesday night as patrons were watching the University of Kansas-TCU basketball game on television. Srinivas Kuchibhotla, 32, died at an area hospital, police said. Alok Madasani, 32, and Ian Grillot, 24, were hospitalized and are in stable condition. The Linkedin accounts for Kuchibhotla and Madasani say that they were engineers working at GPS-maker Garmin and had studied in India. A spokesman for India's External Affairs Ministry, Vikas Swarup, said that Kuchibhotla was an Indian national from the southern state of Telangana.
