81 Year old Francis Tovey allegedly built a special suicide robot. It was programmed to fire multiple shots from a .22 semi-automatic pistol. The robot fired into Mr. Torvey’s head in his driveway; he is reported to have chosen the driveway because he knew workmen next door would quickly find his body.

I don’t know, but it sounds kinda dodgy to me. How do we know we’re not dealing with an ultra sophisticated killer robot from the future here? It could be disguised to look like something built with a jigsaw power tool. I wouldn’t wan to work at the police evident room- you know that thing is going to break out in a violent orgy of mayhem.
