A gunman killed a reporter and videographer for a CBS affiliate in Virginia in a shooting that was broadcast live Wednesday morning.
Alison Parker and Adam Ward, a reporter and cameraman for CBS Roanoke affiliate WDBJ-TV, died in the shooting, Parker's mother confirmed to CBS News.
WDBJ-TV reports that deputies from Franklin County and Bedford County were on the scene.
The shooting happened at Bridgewater Plaza in Moneta, Virginia.
Cops are using Singray to ping the perp’s cell phone for a location.
I have one that I went to high school with - didn’t know him very well back then - who literally posts pictures of he and his wife daily. Wherever they go, whatever they do, breakfast, lunch, dinner, doctor’s office, supermarket, anything. It’s hysterical!
No, I think they were screwing off and not paying attention to the feed they were paid big bucks to monitor!
No doubt you're right. I'm sorry for your loss, rarestia. Glad things are better for you.
I withdraw my earlier comment...correction accepted.
We even set up a family site on FB so all could be notified at one time when my dad passed. Much quicker and easier then phone calling 100 plus people
It’s the bizarre Millennial impulse toward self-disclosure.
The presumption is that not expressing deep emotions in public is suspicious, evidence of a lack of empathy.
It indicates a more porous definition of self and lower social boundaries than what has existed historically.
Such people are easily manipulated. They are more likely to rely on social proof than solid argumentation. They will be shocked when they are mugged by their own gullibility.
Not enough time for that. Police barely had time to get to the scene, much less come up with such a scheme.
That.. oooooor.. message from the zero-admin that they best push the agenda harder or else. /foil?
Or...neither of you has any idea what happened in this case.
Sounds like all they really have on location is cell phone pings?
Liveleak has the video.
Love you.
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. At such a time, you have enough to do without added worries.
Last time he used it was in Augusta County.
.......Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe [who also called for gun control.....]told Northern Virginia radio station WTOP that authorities were pursuing the suspect on I-64.
Mr. McAuliffe said police have both the suspect’s license plate number and a photo of him and are in the process of a pursuit.
“We believe he is a disgruntled employee of the TV station. Unfortunately he probably knew both of the victims,”Mr. McAuliffe said during an interview on WTOP.
Bedford County Public schools are are perimeter lock-down until further notice.
The woman who was being interviewed when the shooting took place was also injured and is now in surgery, CNN reported.....

Wow selfie with the Reporter he killed and her fiancee. My guess he was hitting on her which got him fired.
You, too.
She was fired from her position and became completely radioactive for any tv gigs, following some poor choices with the murder victims husband, during the investigation. Her husband then divorced her.
After Trump gets through with her, she might have a hard time finding a job in fast food.
Vallejo, CA — my hometown. I’ll be damned...
