MALDEN | FROM PAGE 11 A Malden police report filed in court said that the mother of the family woke up Tuesday and found Butler on her back deck. He said he was going to kill her and attempted to fire his gun twice, but the gun jammed. She recognized Butler and initially thought he was playing a joke, but then she became afraid and locked the back door. Butler then broke the glass on the door and gained entry to the kitchen. According to a police report read at the arraignment Wednesday, the husband came to the kitchen and struggled with Butler, who again tried to fire his gun. Prosecutors said in court that he fired a shot at that time. The husband yelled for everyone to leave the apartment, and the woman, her husband and her son left the home. Prosecutors said Tuesday that the family believed Fitzgibbon had come with them, but she was still in the upstairs bedroom. The family told police they heard another gunshot from inside and saw Butler coming down the driveway with his gun and one of two safes that belonged to the family. Butler fled in a waiting car. The family went back inside to find Fitzgibbon fatally shot upstairs, according to police. After his arrest in Ashland, police said, Butler was interviewed in the Malden Police Station for nearly two hours. During the interview, Butler allegedly told police a second man at the location pulled the trigger, shooting and killing Fitzgibbon and then fleeing the scene. Police said Butler refused to identify the mystery gunman, saying “he was not a rat.” Malden police and state police assigned to DA Ryan’s office are continuing the investigation.
