Legia Kozlowski, 45, of Irving, Texas, was one of six people killed in a mass shooting at Ianni’s restaurant and club in Dallas on June 29, 1984. According to reports, the gunman began shooting patrons at point-blank range after being angered by a woman who spurned his advances. Kozlowski’s body was sent to Minnesota for burial.

The suspect, 39-year-old Moroccan national Abdelkrim Belachheb, was arrested without incident at a friend’s house about three hours after the shootings. He was initially charged with one count of murder; authorities later added five more counts of murder and one count of attempted murder. Belachheb was held on $500,000 bond, underwent psychiatric evaluation, and his defense considered an insanity plea while the prosecution maintained he was sane. He was also placed on 24-hour suicide watch while in custody.

The restaurant reopened a few days later, with regular customers returning to comfort each other and the manager. Does anyone have memories of Ianni’s or information about Legia Kozlowski that could add to the record?
