Is that background check in the Twitter thread real?
One of the links goes to ABC site, it looks as though the image claiming he was a felon is fake. If he was a mohammedan or not is still TBD.... Too bad no workers there were armed.
Gunman used security pass, two.45-caliber guns to access and kill 12 at Virginia Beach municipal building
The suspect, identified by police as DeWayne Craddock, 40, allegedly used two .45-caliber pistols in the rampage, Ashan Benedict, the special agent in charge of the Washington field division of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, said at a news conference Saturday afternoon. He said both guns were purchased legally by Craddock, one in 2016 and the other in 2018.
Cervera identified Craddock as the gunman. He said Craddock, who lived alone, worked in the city’s public utilities department for 15 years. He was killed during a gun battle with police.
The police chief said it would be the “only time we will announce his name.”
“He was still employed,” Hansen said of Craddock, clarifying earlier reports that the suspect had been fired. “He had a security pass like all employees have and he was authorized to enter that building.”
Craddock enlisted in the Virginia National Guard in April 1996 and served for 17 years, Cotton Puryear, a spokesman for the Virginia National Guard told ABC News. Craddock had been assigned to the 1st Battalion, 111th Field Artillery Regiment as a cannon crew member, but his records indicate he was never deployed overseas.
Court records show Craddock had no criminal history except for a traffic violation in 2013 in Virginia Beach.
Cervera declined to comment on a possible motive for the shooting, and Hansen refused to say if Craddock had recently been disciplined or was the subject of complaints to human resources.
