REDONDO BEACH Calif
REDONDO BEACH, Calif.
Three members of the local rock bands Rage and Shooter were slain in a suburban home by a man who was identified for several hours before committing suicide, officers said yesterday.
Lt. Tom Doty said Eugene Ibanez, 32, had been identified as the prime suspect in the Friday killings of Ricky Byrd, 22, Philip Bleuer, 25, and Gloria Padilla Vigil, 26. Doty not reveal what information led investigating officers to name Ibanez as the probable killer
Ibanez's body was found in a basement room that had been converted into a recording studio. Police said they thought that Ibanez killed the others and then watched television for several hours before fatally shooting himself.
A police SWAT team surrounded the house Friday afternoon after Padilla telephoned the police emergency number and said she had been shot in the head.
Byrd's body was found in a hallway and Bleuer's was in the basement studio. Doty said all had been shot except Bleuer, who was stabbed. A 25-caliber handgun, a small amount of cocaine and $800 in cash also were found.
Seven hours later, after repeated commands to leave the home went unheeded, officers entered and found Padilla's body in a ground floor bedroom.
Neighbors said Bleuer and Padilla, who lived together at the house, belonged to a local band named Rage, and Byrd played with another band called Shooter.

Officers said they thought all three already had been shot when the woman telephoned police. She left the phone off the hook for several hours and a police dispatcher reported hearing a cable television program in the background.
California's lottery to be richest in U.S.
United Press International
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — With dreams of becoming rich overnight, California will begin a modern gold rush this week in the form of a state lottery billed as the richest in the nation.
"If you were a gambler who wanted to win some money, this wouldn't be the way to do it," said Peter Griffin, a mathematics professor at California State University at Sacramento, of the 25 million-to-1 odds for claiming the grand prize.
Millions of people are expected to buy $1 "instant game" lottery tickets in the next few weeks, ignoring the fact that they must beat astronomical odds to take home big winnings, including $2 million grand prizes. As many as 16 people could become millionaires in the first game.
Griffin said, "Winning the grand
prize for the lottery would be roughly equivalent to winning 25 straight passes at craps, or picking the precise order of finish in an 11-horse race where all the horses were equally fast."
Players will scratch a coating off six spots on their tickets to reveal amounts ranging from $2 to $5,000. If the same amount appears in three spots, they collect that amount.
Voters last Nov. 6 overwhelmingly approved an initiative measure to make California the 22nd state to offer a lottery.
If all 400 million first game tickets are sold, 40 million people will win the minimum prize of $2 and 4.8 million will win $5.
There will be 100,000 winners of $100. Beating odds of 4,000-to-1, those winners will be eligible for additional drawings to choose 160 people who will spin a wheel in late October.
