Very sad day for residents in nearby Roanoke, Virginia as a double murder-suicide took place on August 26, 2015.
This former reporter who goes by the name of Byrce Williams who's real name is Vester Lee Flanagan was the suspect of the shooting in Moneta, VA 26 miles east of Roanoke. Vester Flanagan, 41 was a former reporter in WDBJ News said he was racially bulled by his coworkers and his coworkers said homophobic slurs about his sexual orientation. Flanagan, 41 was fired at WDBJ in 2013. He later sued WDBJ for discrimination and he was dissmissed which the company later checked out that none of other workers was racially biased or discriminating other people. His anger started growing as he believed his coworkers was racist.
WARNING THIS VIDEO MAY BE VERY GRAPHIC FOR SOME VIEWING AUDIENCE.
Around 6:45AM EDT Flanagan shot and killed Alison Parker, 24 and Adam Ward , 27 also a third victim was shot and injured and she's recovering in a nearby hospital.
Alison Parker was 24 years old when the shooting took place. She was engaged to her boyfriend of 9 months.
Adam Ward was the camera man at the scene of the shooting he was 27 years old.
My thoughts:
Very very heartbroken news I'm very about that Alison Parker and Adam Ward were very good people at what they did at work not very often you hear about a double murder-suicide. There are crazy people out there running wild and that's the way it is. Friends and family heartbroken and devastated about the shooting event my heart goes out to them!
