Dr. Lewis Thorne, 43, assistant professor of Psychiatry and Mental Hygiene at Yale, was fatally shot and his wife critically wounded in their home last night by an assailant whom state police described as "apparently insane."
The trigger man, reported to be dark complexioned, rough looking, and hatless, rang the Thornes' bell and shot the psychiatrist in the chest twice when he answered the ring.
