He’s no one I ever heard of either, and I’ve at least heard of the more prominant ones.

my first thought.
Police were called to the Glass House by Windsor building after Schmidt told an employee there that he had a break-in. The two then hid in the apartment office, according to dispatch recordings.So let me try and understand this, because this wording in the story does not make sense.
When officers arrived, Schmidt barricaded himself in a hallway near the high-rise’s lobby and fired several shots at them, authorities said. The officers took cover.
Police said officers tried to negotiate with Schmidt, but he continued shooting and they were forced to return fire, killing him
So Schmidt told an employee that he had a break-in.
...Was it Schmidt's employee, or an employee of the Aprtment complex?
...and did Schmidt have a break-in or the apartment complex had a break in?
Who called the Police? Schmidt? The Apartment employee?
After the police were called, apparently Schmidt and the employee hid in an office.
Then the Police arrived and Schmidt started shooting at the police?
What?
Then the police tried to negotiate with Schmidt but he kept shooting at them and the police were forced to kill him?
Like I say, this story, as written does not make sense.
Apparently written by a J skewl valedictorian ..
