Spain. This individual killed himself with a shotgun. He had just killed his father, who had terminal cancer. Fig.2 illustrates how the holster is only missing the two cartridges used at the time. We can also see on Fig.3 the black mark on the shooter’s right hand caused by the gunshot residue, deposited when the shots were fired.
