A Walmart manager opened fire on coworkers gathered in the break room of a Virginia store, a witness said Wednesday. Six people died in the second high-profile mass murder in the country in a handful of days.
The shooter committed suicide, Chesapeake Police Chief Mark G. Solesky said. There is no clear motive for the shooting, which also left four people in the hospital.
The store was busy just before the shooting Tuesday night with people stocking up before the Thanksgiving holiday, a shopper told a local television station.
Employee Briana Tyler told ABC’s “Good Morning America” that workers had gathered in the store’s break room as part of their regular routine before their shifts.
The Walmart attack came three days after a gunman opened fire at a gay nightclub in Colorado, killing five and injuring 17. Earlier this year, the country was rocked by the deaths of 21 people when an armed man assaulted an elementary school in Uvalde (Texas).
