US Walmart shooting: Weapon purchased morning of attack

Nov 25,2022 5:00 pm

A Man who opened fire on co-workers at a Walmart in Virginia had just hours before legally purchased the handgun he used in The Attack , officials say.

An update on Friday from city of Chesapeake officials also said The Gunman did not have a criminal history.

Six people were killed in the Tuesday evening attack, all of whom were Walmart employees.

The Gunman also died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Police have not stated a motive for The Shooting , but officials released a " Death Note" found on The Gunman 's phone that included perceived grievances he held against some of his colleagues.

" God forgive me for what I Am going to do, " The Suspect concluded in The Note .

Police have named The Victims as Lorenzo Gamble, 43, Brian Pendleton , 38, Kellie Pyle, 52, Randall Blevins, 70, and Tyneka Johnson, 22.

On Friday, the city revealed name of The Sixth victim: 16-year-old Fernando Chavez-Barron.

A Walmart spokesperson said in a statement to media that all of The Victims worked for The Company .

The Gunman was identified by police as 31-year-old Andre Bing, a manager at the Walmart where The Attack took place.

Police said he was armed with a 9mm handgun that was purchased at a local store, and multiple magazines.

A Witness in The Attack has said The Gunman appeared to be targeting specific people.

Speaking to the Associated Press , Jessica Wilczewski said workers were gathered in The Store 's break room when The Gunman opened fire.

" What I do know is that he made sure who he wanted dead, was dead, " Ms Wilczewski said.

Chesapeake Mayor Rick West said a community vigil will be held on Monday to commemorate The Victims .

The Virginia shooting came just days after a gunman opened fire at a LGBT nightclub in the US state of Colorado, killing five people and leaving 17 others with gunshot injuries.

This is not The First mass shooting at a Walmart store. Twenty-three people were killed in 2019 at a Walmart in El Paso , Texas. The Gunman , who allegedly targeted Hispanics, is awaiting trial.

On Thursday, President Joe Biden called for stricter gun laws and said he is " going to try" to move on Gun Control before Republicans take control of The House of Representatives in January .
