Waters revealed that Palmeter left\u2064 his home in\u200d Clay County around 11:39 a.m.\u200c and made his way to\u2062 Jacksonville. Along \u2064the way, he stopped at Edward Waters \u200cUniversity,\u2062 a \u200dhistorically black college, where he put on a bulletproof vest. A vigilant student noticed Palmeter&#8217;s suspicious behavior and \u2062alerted campus security. Dr. A. Zachary Faison Jr., the \u200dpresident and CEO of Edward Waters University, stated that\u2063 their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jacksonville-mass-shooting-everything-to-know-about-dollar-general-attack-that-killed-three\/\" title=\"Key details on the Jacksonville mass shooting at Dollar General: Three killed in the attack.\">security team swiftly \u2064responded<\/a>, ensuring\u200b the safety \u200bof the campus \u2064community.<\/p>\n<p>After leaving the university, Palmeter \u2063was followed by a security guard until he\u2062 exited the \u2063premises. University police then flagged down a sheriff&#8217;s officer, reporting a suspicious person on campus. Faison commended the actions of the campus\u200c security, stating that their swift response \u2063likely saved numerous lives.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s\u200c not by happenstance, we believe, that he came\u200c to the \u200dfirst historically black university in this state first,&#8221; Faison said.<\/p>\n<h3>The \u2062Shooter Arrives at\u200c Dollar General<\/h3>\n<p>Palmeter arrived at the Dollar General store around 1 p.m. His \u2063violent spree began when he shot at a \u2064black Kia in the parking lot, tragically taking the life \u200cof Angela Michelle Carr. He\u2064 then entered \u200bthe\u2064 store and targeted A.J. Laguerre, an employee of Dollar General.\u2062 Moments later, Jerrald Gallion entered the store, only to become another victim of\u2064 Palmeter&#8217;s senseless violence. As chaos ensued,\u2064 other customers and employees managed to escape through the back exit, with\u200c Palmeter in pursuit. He briefly returned to the store, firing at security cameras.<\/p>\n<p>At\u2064 1:18 p.m., Palmeter sent a text to his father, urging him to go into his room.\u200b Just a minute later, officers entered the store, 11\u200c minutes after the shooting began, and heard a single gunshot.\u200d It was at that moment that Palmeter took his own life. Authorities later discovered a will and a suicide note\u200d left behind by Palmeter, \u200bwhich his father\u2064 found and promptly reported to the Clay County Sheriff&#8217;s\u200d Office.<\/p>\n<h3>Shooting \u200dAftermath and Investigation<\/h3>\n<p>Disturbingly, \u200dPalmeter&#8217;s\u200d writings\u2064 revealed his\u200d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-judiciary-committee-to-vote-on-creating-slavery-reparations-commission-to-address-deep-seeded-racism\/\" title=\"House Judiciary Committee To Vote On Creating Slavery Reparations Commission To Address \u2018Deep-Seeded Racism\u2019\">deep-seated racism<\/a> \u2064and white supremacist views.
