Paul Kutz, 53, from Long Island, New York was caught in the mayhem of the shootout at the hotel in Poughkeepsie.

Two homeless men with gang ties were arrested following the shooting with police reporting finding bomb-making equipment and together with a 'ghost gun' rifle in the one of the rooms at the hotel.
