SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- The parents of the gunman in last year's Trolley Square shootings have moved back to Bosnia.

Suljo and Sabira Talovic say they have been comforted by neighbors since the tragedy, but have grown tired of the relentless media coverage surrounding the case. The one-year anniversary was the most difficult to bear.

Family members say Suljo Talovic is building a house in Bosnia and plans to grow potatoes.

On Feb. 12 of last year, the Talovics' son, Sulejman, killed five people and wounded four others in a downtown shopping area before police shot him down.
