Roanoke Police spokesman Scott Leamon also said officers had been posted at the other television stations and media outlets around the city. “It’s just a precaution,” Leamon said.Well gee, the gunman did know where these reporters would be that early in the morning....... Next logical thought it that he had inside information.

If the older lady being interviewed was not hit he knew exactly who he was aiming for. A disgrunted ex boyfriend or an idiot the blonde would not talk to. Reminds me of Travis Bickle in Taxi Driver.

I’m not proud to admit I’ve seen more than a few of these types of videos, and the person who is shot often doesn’t run after being shot. Unless you’re military or police and are conditioned to comprehend these situations, a gun shot wound is often shocking. She didn’t expect this. She was likely shot while fleeing.

She had just done a story on child abuse ..... maybe related, maybe not. Could also have been a stalker .... or just some random nut job. Facebook post by her boyfriend with pics - he’s heartbroken, of course.
It's a station employee or ex-employee.

"Nah. I live in the area, and one could probably count on one hand how many Muslims that are around here. (probably an understatement but you get the idea)" Count your blessing, KoRn. Down here around Appomattox we're swarming with them. There's a Muslim compound in Red House that receives funding from overseas terrorists.

You’re welcome...will see what else I can find.
Thought the local talk station would be discussing it, but nothing.

Those jobs are hard to get and easy to lose because there are so many people vying for them. He also may have a crush on the reporter and went off because she moved in with someone.
To: NKP_Vet
I read the older lady was hit in the back and is surgery.

Yeah, I don’t know from gunshot reactions but it does appear she was shot first.

We’ll soon find out. Sounds like the police expect to arrest him shortly. (unless he kills himself 1st)
