Vester Flanagan : ウィキペディア英語版
Murders of Alison Parker and Adam Ward

-->
}}
On August 26, 2015, news reporter Alison Parker and photojournalist Adam Ward, employees of CBS affiliate WDBJ in Roanoke, Virginia, United States, were shot to death while conducting a live television interview near Smith Mountain Lake in Moneta. The news team was interviewing Vicki Gardner, executive director of the local chamber of commerce, when all three were attacked by a gunman. Parker, age 24, and Ward, age 27, died at the scene while Gardner survived. Parker and Ward were the seventh and eighth journalists killed on the job in the United States since 1992.〔Data from Committee to Protect Journalists at (cpj.org ). The figure does not include American journalists who were killed outside the United States.〕
The gunman was identified as 41-year-old Vester Lee Flanagan II, also known by the professional pseudonym of Bryce Williams, a former reporter at WDBJ. The station fired him for disruptive conduct in 2013. After a manhunt that lasted for almost five hours, Flanagan shot himself during a car chase with police officers and died later at Inova Fairfax Hospital.〔
==Events==
Parker and Ward were conducting a live interview with Gardner at Bridgewater Plaza in Moneta, Virginia, about upcoming events for the 50th anniversary of Smith Mountain Lake, located southeast of Roanoke. The shooting occurred at 6:46 a.m. Eastern Time in the middle of the segment, which was broadcast on WDBJ's morning news program, ''Mornin''. Video of the incident showed Parker conducting the interview, before at least eight gunshots were heard, followed by screams. Ward's camera fell to the ground, briefly capturing the image of Flanagan holding a Glock 19 9mm pistol.〔〔 WDBJ production master control operators then switched back to ''Mornin'' anchor Kimberly McBroom at the station's news studio, seemingly confused by what had just happened. She later said that she believed that the noises could have been a car backfiring or shots being fired in the background.
Parker and Ward died at the scene. Gardner was also shot, but survived following surgery at Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital. According to the state medical examiner's office, Parker died from gunshot wounds to her head and chest, while Ward died from shots to his head and torso. Gardner was shot in the back after she curled up into a fetal position in an attempt to play dead.〔 A total of fifteen shots were fired during the shooting.
After reviewing video of the incident from Ward's fallen camera, staff in the WDBJ newsroom identified Flanagan as the likely gunman. They alerted the station's general manager, Jeffrey Marks, who passed the information to the county sheriff. At 8:23 a.m., Flanagan faxed ABC News and then phoned shortly after 10:00 a.m., making a confession.〔 During the ensuing manhunt, authorities tracked Flanagan's cell phone to locate him.
After abandoning his Ford Mustang at Roanoke–Blacksburg Regional Airport, Flanagan drove a rented Chevrolet Sonic east on I-66. An automated license plate reader in a Virginia state trooper's car identified the rented Sonic at 11:20 a.m. The trooper called for backup and attempted to initiate a traffic stop, but Flanagan sped away. After a pursuit of less than two miles, Flanagan's car ran off the side of the road and struck an embankment near Markham. Flanagan was found inside the car with gunshot wounds,〔 which were apparently self-inflicted while he was driving. He was airlifted to Inova Fairfax Hospital in Falls Church, Virginia, where he was declared dead at 1:26 p.m.〔
