Fifth victim dies in Louisville bank massacre: Mom-of-two, 57, passes away after multiple surgeries following 25-year-old shooter's rampage - as bank says it has been left 'devastated'
|
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] BLUF: Democratis Party supporter working at bank run by Democratic Party supporters goes out in a blaze of glory. Follow up to this story from yesterday. - The five senior bank executives were shot dead by their former colleague Connor Sturgeon, 25, on Monday
- Tommy Elliott, the bank's senior vice president, was a friend of Governor Andy Beshear, and had donated $2,000 to his gubernatorial campaign in 2018
- Sturgeon wounded nine others, including two police officers: he was shot dead by Louisville police
- He stormed a conference room at Old National Bank at 8.30am - half an hour before the branch opened to the public
Sturgeon, according to authorities, was an employee of the bank who had been fired, or was aware that he was about to lose his job.
He used an AR-15-style rifle and wounded nine people, including two police officers.
During the shooting, it was overheard on police scanners that Sturgeon was 'suicidal and texted a friend that he would 'shoot up the bank.''
Police also confirmed that Sturgeon live-streamed the shooting on his Instagram, which has since been taken down.
The gunman was also killed in the shooting, but it is unclear if he died from a self-inflicted wound or from injuries he sustained as he exchanged gunfire with officers at the scene.
Officers arrived within three minutes and found the shooter still firing, Louisville Metro Police Deputy Chief Paul Humphrey said. They exchanged fire with Sturgeon.
A high school friend said Sturgeon was a star athlete in Indiana, where he excelled at track, football and basketball at his school just across the Ohio river from Louisville. But he suffered multiple concussions and wore a head guard.
Sturgeon's LinkedIn said he completed three summer internships between 2018-2020, before starting work at Old National Bank as a syndications associate and portfolio banker.
'I am certified in the RMA Lending Decision Process, hold a Master's in Finance from the University of Alabama, and am on the Young Professionals board for Junior Achievement of Kentuckiana,' he wrote on his profile.
He also hosted a basketball-focused podcast with two friends, The Daily Beast said, and tweeted about the NBA.
He also posted shows of support for the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020, as well as criticism of police violence and of Donald Trump.
