      Image shows a crime scene in between two police cars.
      Spot where Student was Slain in Fairview Mall parking lot is roped off. Police question bystanders of possible clues, but apparently have no motive for the slaying of Michael Habbib, 15, who was shot twice in the face as he walked across the lot last night. A suspect was wounded seriously in a shoot-out with police a little later in the parking lot of Scarborough Town Centre mall, about 5 miles east.
