Police: Walmart Employee Kills 2 in Targeted Shooting
Breitbart ^ | 04/11/2025 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 04/11/2025 6:15:07 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

A Walmart employee in Newton County, Georgia, shot and killed one person inside the store and another person at a residence early Friday morning.

The Associated Press noted that the shooting inside the store occurred at 1:30 a.m., leaving an employee dead and another employee wounded. The gunman then went to a nearby residence and killed another person.

FOX 5 Atlanta reported that the individual killed in the home was a Walmart employee, too.

The violence started when one employee left the store, retrieved a gun from his vehicle and came back inside. He was captured just across the Georgia state line in Aiken, South Carolina.

Law enforcement indicates the gunman, the two deceased victims, and the wounded victim were “all acquaintances.”

I sure Walmart got tax credits for hiring this individual from some special program, meaning the taxpayers subsidized Walmart’s hiring.

What a lousy article. No pics usually means it’s one of them.

“Manager states: “All they did is to request this one employee stop leaving melted cheese in the cafeteria microwave every time he heated up his pizza slices during lunch. I never, no one in the store expected this bloodbath ! We will now have to consider removing the microwave from the lunchroom in wake of this tragedy.,” //////

Walmarts close to the public at 11pm.

Walmart employees work overnight to restock the store . My guess is he is or was part of the overnight crew.

During the standoff, officials say the gunman shot himself. Medics have rushed the man to a local hospital for treatment. No law enforcement officers were injured.
