a moment ago I saw on a Czech server the short footage from Virginia of a journalist and photographer shot dead during an interview today;
if you're sure you want to see it ... CNN story:
This was horrific. I am moving it to Breaking News because the major news services are all picking it up.
This lady reporter in her mid twenties, and her cameraman, also in his mid twenties, were doing a local live news broadcast for their local morning news.
They were talking to a member of the Chamber of Commerce for that town.
Not really a big story, but of local interest there.
As they are talking and the cameraman pans to the reporter and the chamber of commerce member, you see movement behind them and then shots ring out. The reporter screams, and then shots keep coming and then the camera falls to the ground and you continue to hear screams.
That video ends, but they do have a picture of the shooter. The camera on the ground apparently has a picture of him walking up to the downed cameraman, pointing a gun at him and finishing him off.
Pretty clear picture of the shooter.
No one knows ho he is at this point...but I think they will identify him from the picture. it will certainly convict him if he ever stands trial.
Was he involved in a lcve triangle with someone there?
Was he angry at the town. or chamber of commerce?
No one knows at this point.
BTW, the Chamber of Commerce member, a woman, who was being interviewed, survived. She is in critical condition at a hospital with a gunshot wound in the back.
We will learn more as time goes on.
