( so much for the 'good guy' with a gun theory, especially if the 'good guy' acts as if he is a white supremacist racist with a gun.)

More from that station http://www.wave3.com/2018/10/25/kroger-shooting-accused-killer-held-m-bond/


Kroger Shooting:Victims identified, accused killer held on $5M bond
Gregory Bush charged with 2 counts of murder, 10 counts of wanton endangerment.


snip..."Below is a recap of the narrative of his arrest report:

Arrested subject entered the Kroger store at 9080 Taylorsville Rd, walked toward the rear of the store and for reasons unknown at this time as relayed by witnesses to the event and video, the arrested subject pulled a pistol from his waistband and shot victim #1 in the rear of the head and again multiple times as he was down on the floor, causing death. Arrested subject then exited the Kroger store being observed by witnesses re-holstering his weapon until he exited. Witnesses and video show the arrested subject draw his pistol again once outside in the parking lot and shoot victim #2 several times causing her death. Arrested subject then came into contact with a civilian, carry concealed pistol (CCDW) holder, who challenged the arrested subject, who then began firing wildly at the civilian throughout the parking lot endangering several pedestrian shoppers.
Gregory Bush's arrest report
The victims were identified as Maurice Stallard, 69, of Louisville, and Vicki Lee Jones, 67, also of Louisville. Stallard was the father of the city’s Chief Equity Officer, Kellie Watson.

Stallard and Jones both were black.

An unverified Facebook page attributed to a Gregory Bush in Louisville indicates he has struggled with mental illness, particularly schizophrenia, which he wrote was severe enough to put him on medical disability. The page also says he is a graduate of Fern Creek High School.

well a diminished capacity defense. And Bush had weapons, if he is on mental health SSDI, who got his weapons for him

I'm leaning toward it being the shooter who had just killed a black man and woman, both in their late sixties. It makes somewhat more sense than if it was the armed bystander saying it. Whoever it was, the reporter was left speechless -- literally.
