Mall Massacre victim speaks. Robert Hawkins had been kicked out of his family's house, had broken up with his girlfriend and was recently fired from his job at McDonald's, where he had been accused of stealing $17. Hawkins called Debora Maruca-Kovac, the woman whose home he was living in, about 1 p.m. on Wednesday "very upset," telling her that he had left a note for her in his bedroom, she said. She tried to get him to explain, but he hung up after telling her "I love you, and I'm sorry for any pain I've caused you," she told a local television station. Maruca-Kovac found what the 20-year-old had left in the home: A suicide note, in which he said he was "going out in style," and that he'd never been anything in his life but after Wednesday he would be famous. Armed with a rifle, Hawkins went to the sprawling upscale Westroads Mall, filled with shoppers three weeks before Christmas. The Omaha World-Herald reported that he had a military-style haircut, a black backpack and wore a camouflage vest. Witnesses said Hawkins then fired down on people from a third-floor balcony of the Von Maur department store. Eight people were killed. Five were wounded, two critically. Hawkins then apparently turned the rifle on himself, ending his own life.
