Late Friday afternoon, 47-year old Jing Hua Wu, the recently fired lead product testing engineer of Siport (a semiconductor chip company), walked into the offices of his former employers, and shot to death the top management of the company. Among the victims was 56-year old Sid Agarwal, the CEO of Siport, an ex-IITian (IIT-Kanpur, 1974, electrical engineering).

Sid was a well-known executive in the Silicon Valley, and a respected member of the Indo-American community. Prior to SiPort, Sid held executive management positions at Alliance Semiconductor, Layer Five Networks (acquired by Juniper) and Synaptics. Earlier, Sid held leadership marketing, sales and engineering positions at Adobe, Intel and Bell Labs. Sid received a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, India, an M.S. degree from Southern Illinois University and an M.B.A. degree from the University of Chicago.

Now CEOs in US would have to carry guns or get armed escort, this is totally ridiculous.
