People were lucky this guy didin't want to take a few with him. I happen to know that this city prohibits employees from having weapons on the premisis, including in a vehicle in the parking lot.

Man thought to have shot self at City Hall
A 65-year-old Coppell man is believed to have fatally shot himself in a bathroom at Coppell City Hall on Thursday, city officials said.
City employees heard a loud noise around 4:30 p.m. but did not know the cause. About 10 minutes later, a city employee entered a men's restroom on the first floor and found the body of a man with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.
Police later identified the man as William Carlton Clark. City officials said they did not know why Clark was at City Hall.
He had a previous run-in with the city four years ago. According to city officials, police responded to Clark's home in 2005 after he barricaded himself inside. Police eventually entered the house and took him to Parkland Memorial Hospital for psychiatric evaluation, a police report says.
