I’m from Minot and now live in NY so of course I had to visit this site on wharbourton Ave in Yonkers. The connection with them and the “son of Sam” is that the Carr brothers were the sons of Sam Carr and they lived in a house directly below the apartment bldg where Berkowitz lived. Again strange because apparently he wasn’t traveling fast and his car veered off the road and somehow he broke his neck. His younger brother Mike died in a one car accident early one morning in 1979 on N圜’s west side highway. You can see the scene photos in the book “The Ultimate Evil”. And he wound up on the floor on his side gun a few feet away and his arms are crossed across his chest. Thing was Carr apparently used a shotgun to shoot himself square in the face. He was living with his girlfriend who was stationed there David Berkowitz was arrested in August 1977. Yep David Carr did “commit suicide” at MAFB in early 1978. A lot of times events that occurred in one place will be transposed to another, so it’s possible that this was an actual event that happened nearby, or maybe even in another state. I doubt this is true-being so close to Minot, I’m sure someone would remember an event like this-I suspect it would have even made national news. The motorcade of Security vehicles and trucks promptly plowed right through them without stopping, thus leaving the town with something of a sinister reputation. He was unsuccessful, and they set up a blockade. They made their intentions known, so the local sheriff attempted to talk them out of it. At some point, a group of protesters in the local area elected to try and block one of the roads these crews were traveling on. As one could imagine, security surrounding the crews and equipment that go to and from the site is very tight, and not even local police have the authority to interfere in their movement. The crews that service and operate these sites are from the air base. The most detailed story I heard was from a missile cop about an event that transpired back in the 1960s or 1970s.įor those that don’t know, there are ICBM silos all over NW North Dakota. That much, at least, is documented-the suicide part, not the Tagus connection. one of the Carr brothers (neighbors to David Berkowitz) committed suicide on base. I also heard something about the Son of Sam killings, and their relationship to MAFB. I first heard of Tagus when some of the dudes I work with took a Sunday off to go look at ghost towns.


I’m a bomber guy at Minot AFB, been up North for about six years now.
