On this day in 1966,Charles Whitman took a stockpile of
guns and ammunition to the observatory platform atop
a 300-foot tower at the University of Texas and proceeded
to shoot 46 people, killing 14 people and wounding 32.

Whitman, who had killed both his wife and mother the
night before, was
eventually shot to death after courageous
Austin police
officers, including Ramiro Martinez, charged
up the stairs of the tower to subdue the attacker.

    
    
   

Ramiro "Ray" Martinez had a building decicated to him by Travis County in 2004 for his role in helping stop the UT Tower shooter, but it didn't fully tell his story until Oct. 19.
Ramiro "Ray" Martinez turned 86 in January.
