On Wednesday, officers from the Upper Macungie Township Police Department named 45-year-old Za Uk Lian as the gunman.<\/p>\n<p>Lian reportedly shot at a woman\u2019s car on a highway before driving to a nearby gas station and firing at a man in a separate vehicle who was injured. The suspect went on to shoot and kill a 31-year-old man named Ramon Rodriguez who was pumping gas. Authorities said Lian then fled to a nearby day care center before fatally shooting himself in the chest.<\/p>\n<p>The district attorney said the investigation has not revealed a motive so far.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The alleged shooter then took off on foot and ran down Route 100 about a quarter of a mile before apparently committing suicide\u2026 shooting himself once in the hand and once in the chest. The Lehigh County coroner&#8217;s office pronounced him dead. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/69News?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@69News<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ali Reid (@alireidtv) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/alireidtv\/status\/1384870702600314884?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 21, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Authorities said a man working at the gas station was taking out the trash at the time of the attack and was able to usher customers inside to shelter in place before locking the doors.<\/p>\n<p>Officers touted several local police departments\u2019 response times, noting they prevented the situation from becoming worse.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/unicef-reports-sharp-increase-in-undocumented-minors\/\"> UNICEF reports sharp increase in undocumented minors<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Authorities investigate gunfire that left one victim and the gunman dead, along with one person wounded, Wednesday, April 21, 2021, outside Wawa at Route 100 and Schantz Road in Breinigsville, &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2276408,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-439087","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/439087","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=439087"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/439087\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2276408"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=439087"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=439087"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=439087"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
