Police in North Carolina say a Winston-Salem city employee shot and killed a co-worker he had long disliked. The attacker was killed in a gunfight with police, and two people were wounded.
City workers and police stand outside the Joycelyn V. Johnson Municipal Services Center after reports of gunshots in Winston-Salem, N.C. early Friday, Dec. 20, 2019. Winston- Salem Police are confirming there was a shooting but are not saying at this time if there are any injuries or deaths.
Tollie said the two men had been involved in a physical altercation Thursday that wasn’t reported at the time to their superiors. Another city employee who was wounded wasn’t targeted and was “collateral damage,” Tollie said. Tollie said the gunman brought multiple firearms to the shooting Friday. Black ran back to his car and said others did the same and drove off. He said he just stood back and watched until police arrived.

He’s expected to survive.She also decried what she said is the challenge for her department and others around the country — gun violence. “Some of those guys been knowing each other for years. They took it pretty hard,” Black said. “Everybody was affected.At Cobb’s home on the north side of Winston-Salem, his mother-in-law, Kathy Forte, said the timing of the shooting before Christmas and just after a family birthday party made it especially devastating.
