On Saturday, a gunman slaughtered three people in broad daylight in Colorado Springs before dying in a gunfight against local police. One of the gunman’s victims was Andrew Alan Myers, an Army veteran who was deployed three times to Iraq.

Myers did not know the shooter, Noah Harpham, nor did he do anything to draw the gunman’s ire. Myers was simply bicycling down a street in his neighborhood when Harpham opened fire at random.

“He spent three tours of duty in Iraq and came out of that all right, and then came home only to be shot by someone he didn’t even know,” his grandfather Samual Myers said to the Associated Press.

The devoted father of two young sons, Myers served in the Army for ten years and earned two Army Commendation medals and three Good Conduct medals. He received an administrative discharge in 2013 and reassigned to the 1st Brigade Combat Team in the 4th Infantry Division at Fort Carson nearby Colorado Springs.

The other victims were Jennifer Michelle Vasquez and Christina Rose Baccus-Gallela, who were sitting on a porch at a sober home a mile away from where Myers was shot. The motive behind Harpham’s rampage is unknown.
