The shooter was an employee with the city&#8217;s public works. (L. Todd Spencer\/Virginian Pilot Staff)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This happened in my neck of the woods. A disgruntled employee opened fire on fellow city workers at Virginia Beach&#8217;s Municipal Center. Twelve passed away as a result of the shooting, including the gunman.<\/p>\n<p>Police officers engaged in a shootout with the shooter, one of them got shot. However, the vest that the officer was wearing prevented that officer from becoming another death\/serious injury. Four others were injured.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">From the Virginian Pilot:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The gunfire in Virginia Beach began shortly after 4 p.m. as workers were preparing to leave for the weekend. The shooting occurred in building 2, next to City Hall near the intersection of Nimmo Parkway and Princess Anne Boulevard. The planning, public utilities, public works departments and others are located there. The three-story brick building on Courthouse Drive houses about 400 workers.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the employees work out of small office spaces along long hallways. The doors are typically unlocked and open to the public.<\/p>\n<p>Craddock on Friday was a current employee of the public utilities department, Cervera said. He came armed with a .45-caliber handgun with a sound suppressor on it and shot one victim in a vehicle outside before entering the building. The rest were shot inside.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He shot one person in their car, then entered a building and shot personnel on all three levels.
