But the majority of residents who
contracted the bacterium didn't have
any symptoms. That's because there a
varying degrees of infection,

a person can have no illness at all and
just be a carrier, mild illness such as
strep throat, or severe illness --where
the the bacteria destroys tissue and
causes organ failure.

Thursday News 7 spoke with the CEO of
the facility which is part of

The incident happened in the parking

That's when officers opened fire.

Roach managed to escape. He was later
