How does a family feud escalate into a horrifying massacre at a public event, leaving a community in shock? A recent shooting at a Rhode Island ice rink transformed a high school hockey game into a scene of terror, claiming two lives and critically injuring three others. Authorities confirmed Robert Dorgan, who identified as transgender, opened fire, fatally shooting his ex-wife, Rhonda Dorgan, and their adult son, Aidan Dorgan. Rhonda’s parents, Linda and Gerald Dorgan, along with family friend Thomas Geruso, were also critically wounded in the attack. Dorgan’s daughter from another relationship, Amanda Wallace-Hubbard, described the incident as a targeted “vendetta” against the family, crediting an unnamed good Samaritan with tackling the shooter and saving lives before Dorgan died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The horrific event unfolded as Dorgan’s 17-year-old son, Colin, played on the ice, witnessing players and fans desperately scramble for cover amidst a dozen gunshots. While police characterized it as a “family dispute,” court records reveal a disturbing history of conflict surrounding Robert Dorgan, including disputes linked to his gender transition, a contentious divorce finalized in 2021, and past assault allegations against family members. These profound family tensions appear to have culminated in this tragic act of violence. As investigators piece together the timeline, the community grapples with the devastating impact of such personal animosity erupting so publicly.
