Struck in the shoulder by the same bullet which. killed a colleague of his, Vu Shih-chieh, aged 28, died at St. Marie's Hospital at 7.20 a.m. yesterday before the French Police could question him.
The shooting took place in the Lyceum Thestre during the Chinese theatrical show on Saturday after-
Loon. The first victim, Cheng Anchuen, died on the spot.
Incidentally the two men were employed by the same firm, the International Business Machine Corporation, 220 Szechuen Road. Both occupied aisle seats on the ground floor, the first being seated in the second row, and the second, in the fifth row and immediately behind him.
As both rose to their feet with others to applaud the performance, a single shot rang out which struck the first Chinese in the neck and the second in boulder. In the ensuing commotion, the murderer es-coped.
No e y of the gunman could be from those who attended the show. Conflicting were also the reports concerning the spot from which the fatal shot was fired.
Some said the shot had been fired from the orchestra pit. Others said it came from the same row in which lapse when the moment comes for the demobilization of this wartime industrial plant, the Institute states, will be the first, the finding of new peaceable outlets Yor her wartime industries and secondly, continuing to arm for new military adventures.
