Clinton and Tsvangirai leaving STORYLINE An 88-year-old white supremacist who opened fire in the US Holocaust Memorial and Museum in Washington DC, killing a guard, will be charged with murder, officials said on Thursday. Security Guard Stephen T. Johns was shot to death by Holocaust denier James von Brunn after opening the door to let him into the museum, District Police Chief Cathy Lanier said at a news conference. Von Brunn then exchanged fire with guards who shot and critically injured him, stopping him from entering the museum and hurting anyone else, Lanier said. The museum was closed and flags were at half-staff Thursday in honour of Johns, 39. Washington Mayor Adrian Fenty said quick work by law enforcement officers "literally saved the lives of countless people". Bouquets of roses, lilies and other flowers were lined up outside the museum walls on Thursday morning. The entrance where the shooting occurred was still cordoned off by police tape. He also wrote of a lifetime of seething anger.
