Belleville, Ind hotbed of violence?

Hmm this is kind of a weird story I think. It seems that this little Indiana town has had some strange things happen recently:

A man wanted in a Pennsylvania double homicide and apparent abduction of a 14-year-old girl was captured Monday after a car he was driving crashed in Indiana following a police pursuit, State Police said. The girl was found unharmed.

Also earlier there was this:

On Tuesday, police shot and killed 23-year-old Daniel B. Faust hours after he allegedly shot one of three officers who had gone to his home with a traffic warrant. The officer, Jevon M. Miller, was critically wounded.

Lots of weird gun violence for such a small town. The 18 year old man in the first crime, David Ludwig seemed like a regular kid that wouldn't be prone to violence. He shoots and kills the parents and then rushed off with the 14 year old girl. Maybe there is something in their drinking water.
