Are there any amok cases in the Abrahamic, eastern, pagan or native religions and religious Scripture that were proven events? (I.e the crucifixion of Jesus, Muhammad’s conquests, Jewish betrayal of Jesus)
The older the better

Kleomedes of Astypalaia in Ancient Greece
Out of anger for being declared a loser for accidentally killing an opponent in a boxing match, he pulled a pillar in a school and made the roof collapse on the students. He killed 60 people and mysteriously vanished. An oracle forced people to worship him as a hero.
His attack took place in either 496 or 492 BC

At the end of Judges chapter 16, Samson asks God for the strength to collapse two pillars in order that he may kill 3000 philistines as well as himself, God of course grants this prayer. I don't think there's been any archaeological evidence of this ever happening, however this example was brought up in a documentary I saw about Baruch Goldstein which I thought was cute.

How is the crucifixion of Jesus an amok case?
