A disgruntled former employee of a Virginia TV station stalked and ambushed a news crew during a live interview Wednesday morning before opening fire, killing a reporter and photographer and wounding the woman being interviewed.
Vester Lee Flanagan II, 41, who went by the name Bryce Williams while working at the station, WDBJ, has been identified as the suspect. His name was initially reported as Lester Lee Flanagan.
Flanagan shot himself after being confronted by police, WHSV reports. He was taken to the hospital and died at about 1:25 p.m.
The gunman opened fire during a live interview with a member of the local Chamber of Commerce. Cameraman Adam Ward, 27, and reporter Alison Parker, 23, of WDBJ 7 TV, were killed. The woman being interviewed, Vicki Gardner, was also shot and wounded, the Roanoke Times reports. She is in surgery after being shot in the back. Gardner is the executive director at the Smith Mountain Lake Regional Chamber of Commerce.
He was later confronted by police in Fauquier County, about three hours away from where the shooting occurred.

Queers often overreact violently when angered. Most serial killers are queer. There is a reason they call them "Drama Queens", they literally need to be projecting drama on everyone.
They are mentally ill, and it was right to lock them up in institutions which is what was done with them up until the sixties. I personally think the phenomena of the queers "coming out" which started in the late sixties was no doubt due to the numbers of them which had been released from the mental institutions in that era.
He should be mad at his parents for naming him Vester.
Rent boy?
Well, of course! You can’t have a proper Orwellian PC tyranny without the perpetually outraged class getting to have some blood on their hands!
Not a racist. Not a hate crime.
Workplace violence!
Black, gay, perpetually offended with a chip on his shoulder, so how long before we’re told he was a Tea Party Patriot? /s
bttt
and was once a woman.....
&&&
?
He killed two people about to be married - this is an attack on heterosexual monogamy.
They created this racism-everywhere monster for their own purposes and self glorification, and now they are paying the price as it turns on them.
They deserve everything coming their way. They made it - now they own it.
Not racist.
Not a Federal hate crime.
Not homosexual.
Not a journ0list.
How many nots can we tie this into?
the 6th thing we need to know about him is the most telling : he was nuts.
Most serial killers are queer.

Are you sure about that?
“Black, gay, perpetually offended with a chip on his shoulder, so how long before were told he was...”
...returning to the White House after a long day on the golf course.
“The lady who was being interviewed has apparently passed away as well. So he killed all three.”
>>> Local news here in the New River Valley is saying she’s stable after surgery, but you know how it is. Rumors abound right now.
” He was sort of looking out to people to say things he could take offense to.
“Thank you, PC Police, you BLEEPING BLEEPs, for fostering a culture of being offended by everything. This is now leading to people getting killed.”
Spot on - I caught that comment of his station manager as well.
There’s a whole cottage industry of jerks pushing so-called “micro-aggressions” against minorities. Those clowns pushing that agenda should be held to account for this sort of travesty; instead, you can expect to see them getting paid gigs laying guilt trips on incoming college students.
6. He was gay.
or Uncle Vester
Yup. I used to business travel a great deal in Asia. They have very tight gun control and a relatively low availability to even get a gun if you are "qualified".
Rage murders like this are carried out with knives, saws, machetes, claw hammers...
Point is - if one is so inclined, a weapon will be found and used.
