Two killed in a shooting on Friday at a municipal public works building in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, officials say
"There were shots fired," the Winston-Salem Fire Department's Assistant Chief of Operations Jerry Hardison told NBC News early Friday."The situation is under control."
Sanitation worker Marchello Bitting told WXII that he was inside the Johnson Municipal Services Center when the gunfire erupted at about 6:45 a.m. "I hate that this happened. I know it was a very scary situation," Bitting said."We heard a lot of gunshots, everybody running through the building trying to get into a safe place.""On behalf of the City Council, I want to express how deeply saddened we are by the tragic event that occurred this morning involving employees at our Sanitation facility," Joines said in a statement just before noon.
"Although we do not yet have confirmed details about the incident, our thoughts and prayers are with the employees involved, their families, and their co-workers. We remain dedicated to continuing to ensure that all city employees have a safe and secure workplace." The Johnson Municipal Services Center is in the southeast corner of Winston-Salem, about 7 miles away from Wake Forest University.
