    Reporter and cameraman killed by gunman during live broadcast.



    MONETA (WSLS 10) – Police are searching for a person who they say shot at multiple people Wednesday morning, killing WDBJ7’s reporter Alison Parker, 24, and photojournalist Adam Ward, 27, at the Bridgewater Plaza near Smith Mountain Lake.

    According to Franklin County Sheriff Department’s Spokesperson Phillip Young, the shooting occurred at the Bedford County-Franklin County line in Moneta at 6:45 a.m. Wednesday, August 26.

    WDBJ7 says the shooting occurred during their live shot and are asking for prayers during this difficult time.

    Members with Bedford, Franklin County and Virginia State Police are on scene. Sgt. Ryan Young with the Virginia Dept. of Game and Inland Fisheries confirmed half a dozen of their department are on scene searching the shoreline and surrounding area.

    Police say they continue to look for the shooter at this time and are hoping to get a description out to the public shortly. This incident remains under investigation.

    At this time, Bedford County Public Schools are on perimeter lock-down until further notice, according to the superintendent. For those students on their way to school, officials say they will be secured upon arrival.

    OK, there's a gun in his right hand. What is under his left hand? Possibly a tool belt?

    The gunman doesn't look the same in the above photo on Daily Mail. Maybe the first one was digitally manipulated?

    She does not strike me as the type to have dated a guy that looks like he came out of a cave with Bin Laden. You never know though.

    It won't take very long to get them home but it won't be overnight either but Iraq says they can't stay and they are coming home just like Trump said.

    She had been dating another reporter at the station who was present in the newsroom when this all went down. He said they had been together for 9 months and today was her last day reporting for this station as she had gotten a job reporting in Charlotte, NC and they were both moving there. Today was supposed to be a celebration for them. How quickly life can change for any one of us. In the blink of an eye.

    Good. This is not the kind of thing that should happen anywhere and whomever did it needs to be taken out of society.

    By the photo.... Man is a black male. Pretty sure it's not Muslim terrorism.

    I've spent alot of time at Smith Mountain Lake, where this plaza is. It is extremely peaceful area. Right in the heart of moonshine country.
