- Officials trying to learn what prompted a city engineer to kill 12 people in Virginia Beach before he was shot dead by police said on Sunday investigators were examining employment-related issues but stressed that the suspect was not being disciplined.
Craddock, an employee in the coastal resort city’s public utilities department for about 15 years, had been described by officials as disgruntled. But Hansen contradicted reports that he was being disciplined or fired. Using his employee pass to enter secure areas of the building where he worked, Craddock began indiscriminately shooting people with two .45 caliber pistols, reloading with extended ammunition magazines, according to police.
Three of the four people who were wounded were listed in critical condition on Sunday, while the fourth was critical but stable. Officials said all had undergone surgery.The 11 dead municipal workers had been employed for between 11 months and 41 years. Six worked in the public utilities department and five were employed in the public works department.
During the exchange of fire, with the number of rounds fired by Craddock running “well into the double digits,” Cervera said the suspect led the officers on a chase through office doors that he was able to access and that locked behind him.
