truth on hold Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) if the motive was to get one of the other women, that explains why he shot the cameraman first ... not wanting to get filmed who was the other woman? if she ran the amusement park, maybe he's a disgruntled employee? Im guessing most likely she could be a possible target given a limited universe of people who knew filming was scheduled, unless it was someone from the station random act of violence seems a little odd to me. if he was looking to do maximum harm why there at that time of the morning?

mead107 Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Never been a fan of gun control but , something has got to be done. This is getting out of hand. Stop and frisk has to be done with all the gang shootings and all pistol permits need to be reviewed if you want to keep your gun. Every 2 or 3 years person needs to be reevaluated. Like I said I hate to see it but if you have nothing to hide should not be a problem. Imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truth on hold Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) if it's a former employee, how did he know time and location of news interview? MONETA, Va. (WSLS/CNN) – Police are searching a disgruntled former employee of WDBJ who they say shot and killed a reporter and photographer Wednesday morning at the Bridgewater Plaza near Smith Mountain Lake during a morning live shot. According to Franklin County Sheriff Department’s Spokesperson Phillip Young, the shooting occurred at the Bedford County-Franklin County line in Moneta at 6:45 a.m. Wednesday. Police say there were three victims. Authorities say they know the identity of the man believed to be the shooter, a law enforcement official told CNN. The governor of Virginia confirmed to the media that the shooter is a disgruntled employee. http://wishtv.com/2015/08/26/virginia-news-crew-shot-at-during-live-broadcast/ Edited August 26, 2015 by JTSP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Interesting to see the different sorts of human reaction to an overpowering situation like this that was totally unprepared for. The older woman held her arms back and sort of turned into a ball, motionless, whereas the younger reporter female screamed and started running away from the shooter rather quickly. Also interesting to see that the young female reporter seemed to grasp what was happening immediately, which is often not the case in these sorts of things.
