#1 I give a 75% chance the guys name is a variation of Mohammed.

#2 In his 60's, known to police, and with a history of mental illness.

#4 Wonder if he checked the fill level on the tanks?
Around here the Propane freezes in the winter.

Mentally unstable doesn't necessarily mean you can't go boom, just that you may not be able to follow a sequence of events to a planned conclusion without interruption.
