A man suspected of shooting dead a reporter and a cameraman for WDBJ7, a local CBS affiliate, live on air in the US state of Virginia has died of self-inflicted wounds in hospital.
After leaving the scene, former WDBJ7 employee Vester Lee Flanigan, also known as Bryce Williams, crashed his car on the I-66 highway in Faquier County.
Flanigan, 41, was located by police and found to be suffering from a gunshot wound. He later died in hospital.
Earlier on Wednesday, live on air, shots could be heard in footage taken by WDBJ7 cameraman Adam Ward, 27, before he dropped to the ground.
Alison Parker, 24, was conducting an interview about tourism on Bridgewater Plaza in Franklin County before at least eight shots rang out. The woman being interviewed was also wounded in the attack.
