Virgiana TV Reporter and Cameraman Shot On Air This morning, Alison Parker and Adam Ward were shot dead during a live broadcast. The woman they were interviewing, Vicki Gardner of the Smith Mountain Lake Chamber of Commerce was also shot, however after surgery she's believed to be stable.
The shooter, Vester Lee Flanagan, previously worked for the station as a reporter under the air-name Bryce Williams, shot himself (non-fatally) and is currently in custody. Flanagan posted self-shot video of the shooting on his Facebook, and has accused the people shot and the TV station at large of racism.
