Here is the link to the actual broadcast:
Video link deleted
17. Links to LiveLeak.com prohibited. LiveLeak.com has a number of videos that would be appropriate for posting on TexasCHLforum. Unfortunately, it also has advertising/links to porn sites on most if not all of its video. Therefore, links to LiveLeak.com are prohibited.
Here's the news report:

That's a prohibited link, FYI. Liveleak is notorious for throwing porn ads into everything.
As a side note, that's a terrifying video.

The woman reporter reacts very quickly and you see her run away. Knowing that distance is your friend, I am surprised that the reporter is also killed, unless the murderer ran after her and then shot her. The murderer apparently also shot the cameraman a second time after he was down. So apparently the shooter was very intent on killing both people. The interviewee was not hurt. (wrong see below) This is very strange. What could possibly be the motive?
More ammunition for the anties.
RIP

She was shot and, as if a few minutes ago, is in surgery.

It sickens me for a coward to shoot three innocent people like that.

It appears this piece of slime is posting on twitter as he's being pursued. Hopefully someone will video his capture and he'll resist with his weapon drawn.

Fox News is reporting that the shooter or someone claiming to be the shooter posted his own video, either from cell phone or Go-Pro type camera of the shooting.

His Twitter account is under his media name, but his real name is Vester Lee Flanagan. His Twitter account is suspended, and he did post a self made video of himself committing the crime.

I forgot to mention Terry McAulliffe's disgusting comments. Instead of spending the time to extend sympathies to the victims and their families he spent most of the time blaming the lack of back ground checks for the incident. I already knew he was also a piece of slime.
Newsflash FOX reports the shooter committed suicide.

Now a race component to the shooting.
The News reporter was in love with her whole life ahead of her. My condolences to her friends and family and to the other victims as well.
