bludgeoned him with the lamp, and Harding had shot him point-blank with a .25 caliber pistol once in the chest and once in the left temple. Medical examiners attributed his cause of death to the fact that the first bullet had perforated his spinal cord. Authorities found Concannon's body in the hotel room's bathroom; he had also been shot in the chest and temple, and the bullet wound had also perforated his spinal cord, but Concannon's death was not instantaneous like Wise's death was; rather, medical examiners attributed his cause of death to the socks pushed to the back of his throat and obstructing his breathing passage, thereby suffocating him. After going through Robert Wise's belongings, Harding found the victim's home address. He drove the stolen car to Wise's home, where he encountered Wise's wife, supposedly with the intention of murdering her and Wise's children. Wise, Wise's family, Concannon, and Gage were all complete strangers to Harding. Harding had one of Wise's business cards and pretended to know Wise, and after he identified himself under false pretenses, he asked her if "Bob Wise" was home. Wise's wife told Harding that he was not, but that she was expecting him to be home shortly and that he was late. Harding then left. Later, during Harding's trial for Wise's murder, his wife testified that she believed Harding may have left her home so quickly because he was afraid of their family dog. Apprehension After the encounter with Robert Wise's wife, Harding drove the stolen car to a reserved parking lot on the campus of Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff. The campus policeman who was monitoring the lot told Harding to park elsewhere; when he and Harding spoke, he noticed that Harding had a southern accent in spite of the fact that his car had Ohio license plates. The policeman called his police dispatcher and asked him to check the license number. While Harding drove away from the parking lot, the dispatcher returned with information about the car having been stolen and possibly involved in two homicides. The campus police officer then followed Harding, arrested him, and searched him, finding a .25 caliber pistol in one of his pockets, an identification card reading "Security Guard," another identification card reading "Special Officer," a Texas driver's license issued to a man named Ronald Gene Svetgoff, and an Oklahoma driver's license issued to the same man.
