The police chief said the golf course was chosen randomly by the assailants. Macera said police found tire tracks near the bodies. The nine-hole course is being built to teach golf to disadvantaged children and for use by seniors. The young man and woman who were found shot to death on a golf course Friday afternoon were killed by five men who were intent on robbing someone and randomly selected the two college students as they stood talking on a downtown Providence street, the police said. The police say the pair had been dancing Thursday and were outside the young man's sport utility vehicle when the men kidnapped them at gunpoint, forced them into the vehicle, and drove them to the golf course.
