#1 Unidentified assailants gunned down Boob Boverieki, a 45-years-old Norwegian national and territorial commander of the countrys oldest non-government organisation, The Salvation Army (TSA), on Thursday night at the TSA Headquarters.

Anyone in their right mind knows that an exposed Boob is an invitation to trouble.

#2 That was a mistake. Everybody knows that if you hit one of the Sallies, they'll hit you back hard.

#3 Salvation Army? The Christmas bell-ringers? I never found them that annoying. Besides they do a lot of good.

Sounds like Boob, besides having name problems, had a property dispute.

#4 TSA is an active Christian outreach group.

Islamicists are threatened.

#6 Aftenposten offers some additional details:

The suspect under arrest is himself a former Salvation Army officer who was second-in-command to Brekke, but who had been fired because of alleged financial wrongdoing.

The police are describing the murder as part of an internal conflict at the organization. The conflict that motivated the murder, according to police, had to do with an expensive piece of real estate.

Anyway, that's what the Pakistani police told Aftenposten.no

#7 Because the Salvation Army is, like, KNOWN for their flamboyant lifestyles and great wealth.

Pfeh.
