It was a teenager who had been shot by Dietz&#8217; neighbor, Alan Amundson, 53. Julie moved the injured teen inside. Amundson then unleashed a fusillade of gunfire on her home. She called the police and took up a defensive position in view of the front door, her own firearm at the ready. However, Amundson wasn&#8217;t brave enough to approach &#8211; he sent lead instead. The police arrived and Alan fired at them, as well as Dietz&#8217; home. Finally, he offed himself after wounding an officer.
