Emergency services at the scene of the shooting in Virginia Beach. "We just heard people yelling and screaming to get down," Megan Banton, a public utilities worker, told television station WAVY-TV, recalling that she and co-workers barricaded themselves in their office. Authorities have determined the suspect's identity but are not ready to make the name public, Cervera said. "This is the most devastating day in the history of Virginia Beach," Mayor Bobby Dyer said at a news conference with the police chief. Arriving in town a short time after the shooting, Virginia Governor Ralph Northam said: "This is just a horrific day."
