Police say the gun was legally purchased on the morning of the shooting and that the Walmart supervisor had no criminal record
The Walmart supervisor who shot and killed six co-workers in Virginia left behind what he called a “death note” on his phone that apologized for what he was about to do while simultaneously blaming others for mocking him.
Coworkers of Bing who survived the shooting said he was difficult and known for being hostile with employees. One survivor said Bing seemed to target people and fired at some victims after they were already hit and appeared to be dead, said a witness who was present when the shooting started. She said that after the shooting started, a co-worker sitting next to her pulled her under the table to hide. She said that at one point, Bing told her to get out from under the table. But when he saw who she was, he told her, “Jessie, go home.” She said she slowly got up and then ran out of the store.
During chats among coworkers, “We would be like `work is consuming my life.’ And would be like, `Yeah, I don’t have a social life anyway,”' Sinclair recalled Thursday. Bing could be “grumpy” but could also be “placid,” she said. He made people laugh and told Strausburg he liked dance. When she invited him to church, he declined but mentioned that his mother had been a preacher.
“He was just shooting all throughout the room. It didn’t matter who he hit,” Tyler told the AP Wednesday.
