Awakened Abruptly From a Nap

The policeman, who was 26 years old, was said to have fired 170 of the 180 rounds of ammunition during his rampage, which began at 9:30 P.M. It apparently was set off by rage at the way he was awakened from a nap he was taking before going to work; the woman he lived with, 25-year-old Chun Mal Sun, swatted a fly that had landed on his chest.

After reporting for duty at 4 P.M., the policeman, a former marine sergeant, was said to have done some heavy drinking at the local police station.

At about 7.30 P.M., according to Miss Chun, he came home drunk, punched her, making her nose bleed, and then went off into the dark. While police colleagues were at a community meeting, Mr. Woo helped himself to the arms and began roaming through the county.

About two hours later, he opened fire on passers-by in a marketplace in the village of Togongni, hitting Miss Chun, who had gone to find him. Next, he entered a post office in the nearby village of Kungryu, where he killed three telephone operators and cut off the community from the outside world. Many Flee Into Ricefields

Mr. Woo, who was in his police uniform, went from village to village, heading for lighted windows, knocking on doors and shooting or throwing grenades. Many people fled into ricefields, but others were trapped, not expecting trouble from a uniformed policeman as they opened their doors.
