The authorities said that a Wall Mart employee shot a workshop inside the Georgia Store and was cash as a worker early on Friday, while the company was closed to the public.
Newton County Vice -fire deputies at Wall Mart in Kovington, Georgia, responded at about 1:30 am, according to the administration. Sherif’s office later decided that the employee had left the building to obtain a weapon, then returned inside and shot a co -worker.
Then the gunman left the store and “faced one of his second acquaintances” outside, who also shot him. This victim was transferred to the hospital, and it was said that he was in critical condition from Friday morning.
After leaving the store, the gunman then forced him to the nearby house, where he shot his acquaintances.
“The suspect targets the individuals who knew him specifically,” said Sharif’s office.
Representatives were later contacted in the Aknan County County Office by the Georgia State Patrol for assistance in locating the armed. The suspect was arrested shortly after just hours after the first shooting.
The officials said the suspect had suffered a self -wound. He was treated at the scene and transferred to the hospital.
The incident is currently being investigated by officials in both South Georgia and Carolina.
