US reporter and cameraman shot dead during live report
Shootings of Alison Parke and Adam Ward captured on footage taken by CBS affiliate in Virginia during live interview.
A
reporter and a cameraman for a local CBS affiliate in the US state of
Virginia have been shot dead at close range during a live broadcast.
Shots could be heard in footage taken on Wednesday by the WDBJ7 cameraman Adam Ward before he dropped to the ground.
WDBJ7 reported that the alleged shooter of the journalists has been identified as Vester Lee Flanigan, also known as Bryce Williams. He is a former WDBJ7 employee.
State police, quoted by WDBJ7 TV, said the suspect shot himself on the I-66 highway in Faquier County.
Ward and reporter Alison Parker were killed on air, according to WDBJ7 manager Jeffrey Marks.
"We do not know the motive. We do not know who the suspect or who the killer is," Marks said, adding the shooter was still at large.
Parker was conducting an interview about tourism on Bridgewater Plaza in Franklin County before at least eight shots rang out. The woman being interviewed was also wounded in the attack.
