The disgruntled patient who shot and killed a top hand surgeon in
the exam room in Memphis yesterday after threatening him for a week
has been identified as Larry Pickens.
Pickens, 29, shot and killed Dr. Benjamin Mauck at the Campbell
Clinic in Collierville, Memphis, at 2pm.
It remains unclear what the shooter`s motive was. Until yesterday,
he had no criminal record.
Collierville Police Department is refusing to discuss the details
of the shooting, citing the ongoing criminal investigation.
Pickens is being held on a $1.2million bond and will appear in
court tomorrow. He was arrested outside the clinic yesterday after
fleeing with his pistol. His last known address is around 10 miles
from the clinic.

Dr Mauck, 43, was remembered as a phenomenal doctor.
Many of his patients, who lauded him as `kind, funny, and smart,`
said he saved their lives with his vital work.
He leaves behind a wife and two young children.

room at the Campbell Clinic in Collierville
Collierville Police Chief Dale Lane said: `It`s bad. It`s horrific.
It`s terrible.
`So, this appears to be a one-on-one interaction that occurred
within an exam room. This was not a mass shooting situation.`
In an update, the police department wrote: `The suspect in this
incident is in custody as we continue to investigate.
`This was a single shooting, not an active shooting incident.`
`Tragedies like this underscore the urgent need for common sense ?
like reinstating background checks and gun licenses, and
establishing new reforms like an order of protection so police can
remove firearms from a person who is threatening others,` Akbari
said in a statement.
`Whether you?re at school, a grocery store or on the job, you
deserve to live and work free from gun violence.`
Dr Mauck leaves behind his wife, Rhiannon Mauck, and their two
young children.
Just five days ago, Dr Mauck was heralded in the Memphis Magazine
and by the national medical group Castle Connolly as one of the
city`s top doctors in a gushing feature.

into custody
Dr Mauck told the magazine just last month: `It`s never boring.
`This work involves treating sports injuries, trauma, cancer, and
soft-tissue defects. It`s a field of orthopedics that crosses over
into other specialties like plastic surgery and neurology.`
He warned before the Fourth of July: `Keep your kids away from
fireworks.`
He worked as a hand surgeon at Campbell Clinic Orthopedics and was
also the head of the Congenital Hand Clinic at Le Bonheur
Children`s Hospital. According to the clinic`s website, Mauck
specialized in elbow, hand, and wrist surgery.
Dr Mauck graduated from Lambuth University in 2002, before
attending med school at the University of Tennessee-Memphis. He
then completed his residency at UT-Campbell Clinic.
Irina Ollar, director of marketing and PR at Campbell Clinic, said
in a statement: `Earlier today, we experienced a single shooter
event inside our Collierville clinic.
`We are shocked and heartbroken to confirm the incident resulted in
the tragic loss of one of our highly respected and beloved
physicians, Dr. Ben Mauck. We ask that you please lift his family
in prayer.
`During this difficult time, we will be working through many
details and will keep you updated as we are able.
