Seattle's shooter of six people was mentally ill, according to his family. Not surprising. [View all]

How do we keep people like this from getting hold of guns?

The man was identified by law enforcement sources as Ian Lee Stawicki, 40, of Seattle.

His brother Andrew Stawicki, 29, of Ellensburg, said that when he saw a photo on the news of the alleged gunman inside Cafe Racer he recognized it as his brother.

Stawicki said his brother, Ian, was mentally ill.

"It's no surprise to me this happened. We could see this coming. Nothing good is going to come with that much anger inside of you," Andrew Stawicki said.
