The fourth and final killings occurred on 10 March 1980. Two well-known real estate attorneys, John Alberio and Aedan Dionn, were eating a late dinner at a Cheese House location, and were killed with a single shot from a military issue {{wp|Anti-materiel rifle|.50 caliber anti-material rifle}} fired from across the street. The shot not only killed the two men and shattered the window through which it entered but also caused significant destruction of objects behind it (including the soda fountain) while creating significant carnage within the restaurant. | The fourth and final killings occurred on 10 March 1980.

Police and investigators believe the Cheese House killer was responsible only for the four incidents listed in this article, though many other incidents related to violence and fast food occurred in the wake of the national media sensation | Police and investigators believe the Cheese House killer was responsible only for the four incidents listed in this article, though many other incidents related to violence and fast food occurred in the wake of the national media sensation spawned by the case. Most prominent among these was an incident that happened on 12 March 1980. A man named Craig Catric spent 11 March and the morning of 12 March in a [[NoWaiter]] in the [[Urceopolis_(City)#Ardot|Ardot borough of Urceopolis]] leaving cryptic, handwritten flyers on all the tables saying "You get what you pay for". Catric, who apparently managed to remain unnoticed by the employees of the NoWaiter, left on the 11th and returned on the 12th to do the same thing. At around noon on the 12th, the [[Ministry of Commerce (Urcea)|Deputy Minister of Commerce]] entered the NoWaiter. Catric approached the Deputy Minister with a knife drawn and attempted to stab him, but was shot and killed by an off duty member of the [[Life Guard (Urcea)|Life Guard]] who happened to be dining in the restaurant at the time. Police soon after confirmed that Catric was not responsible for the Cheese House killings and was accounted for in the [[Archduchy of Urceopolis]] during the killings in [[Southmarch]]. | ||
