**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**

On April 4th, 1991, 4 masked gunmen -  Loi Khac Nguyen, Pham Khac Nguyen, Long Khac Nguyen, and Cuong Tran - walked into a Good Guys Electronics Store in Sacramento, California and took 41 customers and employees hostage.  They had some demands that they wanted met - between $1 and $3 million, a 50 person military style helicopter, 1000 year old ginseng root, full body armor, and more weapons.  But the things they were asking for were impossible to get…and the hours long crisis would reach a dramatic climax, all of it, broadcast live on television.   In the end, 3 hostages and 3 hostage takers were dead.
