who was the stupid with a flare gun?
, I love music, any kind of music... 1  A Spanish-language blog for Deep Purple fans has apparently dug up an article in a Swiss newspaper where the suspect in the 1971 Montreux Casino fire (a.k.a. stupid with a flare gun) was identified. The suspect, pictured in the 1971 article, was a Czech refugee by the name of Zdenek Spicka who lived in Ãpalinges, Switzerland.
