    Default Pilot deliberately crashes plane into building in Austin, Texas, official says


    An Austin, Texas, resident with an apparent grudge against the Internal Revenue Service set his house on fire Thursday and then crashed a small plane into a building housing an IRS office with nearly 200 employees, officials said. Federal authorities identified the pilot of the Piper Cherokee PA-28 as Joseph Andrew Stack, 53.

    Two people were injured and one person was missing, local officials said. There were no reported deaths.
    A message on a Web site registered to Stack appears to be a suicide note.

    "If you're reading this, you're no doubt asking yourself, 'Why did this have to happen?' " the message says. "The simple truth is that it is complicated and has been coming for a long time."
    In the lengthy, rambling message, the writer rails against the government and, particularly, the IRS. See text of the note (PDF)
