A critically injured TV photojournalist is opening up about the loss of his coworker in a shooting.
Jesse Walden was injured in a series of shootings that took the lives of reporter Dylan Lyons, a 38-year-old woman and a 9-year-old girl,"Dylan was a very, very wholesome person," Walden said. 'Like, he had a great sense of humor too.""Dylan and I got very, very close," he said.
The two started at Spectrum News 13 around the same time last year and got paired on the night shift together."He had a very strong sense of justice. He would really want everyone to follow the rules when it came to people with power," Walden said."Almost sweet to a fault about her," Walden recalled.
As Walden works to process the unimaginable, he has a long road ahead. He's hoping to be out of the hospital in the next day or two, then it's likely months of recovery. But even with all of that, he's still himself, keeping in the best of spirits he can and is so appreciative of the support he's getting from loved ones, old coworkers, even strangers.Dylan Lyons was 24 years old.
A 19-year-old suspect has been taken into custody. Authorities are still working to determine the motive in the shootings.
