Police and eye-witnesses say Majorski drove up to the parking lot in the Celebrity Centre in Hollywood in a red convertible Toyota Solara. Video surveillance cameras show he got out of the car and approached three security guards with a samurai-type sword in each hand. The three guards recognized him as a previous Scientology member who had "created problems" in the past. One of the guards drew a gun and fired at Majorski, who later died at the county hospital. Police said the surveillance video backs up the guard's contention that he fired in self defense.Los Angeles Times: Swordsman slain at Scientology center was from out of state, L.A. investigators say (November 24, 2008)
