It was not clear if he had killed himself or if he had been neutralized by workers.<\/p>\n<p>We are shocked at this tragic event at our Chesapeake, Virginia store,\u201d the Bentonville, Arkansas, company said in a statement. \u201cWe\u2019re praying for those impacted, the community and our associates. We\u2019re working closely with law enforcement, and we are focused on supporting our associates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was not immediately known if all the victims were store employees or what the gunman\u2019s motive was. The body of one victim was found outside the store. At least five victims were being treated at Sentara Norfolk General Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin, who just last week mourned victims of a mass shooting on the campus of University of Virginia, issued a statement early Wednesday decrying the horrific incident.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur hearts break with the community of Chesapeake this morning,\u201d Youngkin tweeted. \u201cI remain in contact with law enforcement officials throughout this morning and have mad available any resources as this investigation move forward. Heinous acts of violence have no place in our communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A Walmart employee <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-11460099\/Multiple-people-dead-injured-Virginia-manager-opens-fire-Walmart.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gave reporters at the scene<\/a> a chilling account of the tragedy and said that the killer was a store supervisor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was the manager,\u201d the employee reportedly said. \u201cOne of the managers. He blew his brains out and everything.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe killed the girl in there and everything,\u201d the employee continued. \u201cHe came in and started spraying. I\u2019m sorry for the victims. I just left the break room, the manager came in there and started capping people up in there, started shooting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A witness <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox3now.com\/andre-bing-identified-as-suspect-manager-in-mass-shooting-at-walmart-in-chesapeake-virginia-multiple-dead-and-injured\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">who spoke to FOX3<\/a> identified the gunman by name. The Daily Wire does not name mass shooters as part of a policy to deprive them of the notoriety they often crave.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[He]\u00a0snapped, walked out and shot a lady in her head then shot another man in his head, both dead,\u201d the witness said. \u201cThen shot my homeboy dead, then shot himself in the head.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chesapeake police, who confirmed seven deaths, including the gunman, have a wee-hours update from the crime scene early Wednesday. Police spokesman Leo Kosinski said police were still searching the building.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs police arrived on scene, they realized it was an active shooter situation and we had to change our tactics,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Virginia Walmart manager reportedly turned the store\u2019s breakroom into a bloodbath Tuesday night, gunning down six people, including employees, before killing himself even as shoppers were stocking up on last-minute Thanksgiving Day provisions.
