Delta State shooting suspect kills himself as police close in
According to Fox News, the killings are assumed to be connected and the result of a love triangle, but motive for the crime hasn’t been formally established yet.
“I shot my wife last night”, he told the dispatcher, adding that there was a “sweet dog” in the house.
I loved Amy and she is the only person who ever loved me. LaForge praised him as a “star” professor. Police said they have not yet uncovered any link between Prentiss, 41, and Schmidt, 39.
“I looked up to the man”, King said.
According to Gautier investigators, their phone records show Lamb was in the northern part of the state near the college when he reached out to the police department. LaForge said he did not know Lamb personally.
Lamb: Um. That’s all I feel like saying right now.
“We’ve got a lot of questions”. “We never accept the conventional wisdom or current paradigm as an acceptable answer”. You could write this off to a disgruntled employee.
“He was really jittery, like there was something wrong with him”, Beavers said.
A search of Lamb’s home turned up a written apology, police said Tuesday.
In that instance, cops tell of Lamb being shot three times with a.380-caliber handgun and had appeared to be either entering or leaving his office because he had a book bag on his shoulder.
He pulled his vehicle over and fled into the bush near the town of Greenville. Lamb grew up in the area.
Lamb started working at the university in 2009 and taught geography and education classes. He received a doctorate in education in the spring.
And Lamb lived with Prentiss.
The shooter is still at large, but the suspect has been identified as Shannon Lamb. About two hours or so after the initial lockdown, about 25 heavily armed police officers swept through the building, Abraham said. He had met him two years in the past, once they have been each new to the campus.
“She was completely devastated”, he said of his daughter.
And it didn’t make things any better knowing she was 3 hours away from her son. Prentiss was a nurse who worked for various companies online. There was no sign of anything amiss.
“Everybody’s phone just sort of went off at the same time”, Abraham said. “We were cutting up and throwing one-liners at each other”, he said.
Kyle Anthony, another Kansas classmate, said that Schmidt was a proud father who coached his son’s soccer team – despite knowing nothing about the sport – and posted stats and points scored by his three children on Facebook.
Lamb’s career prospects at Delta State may have taken a turn because of a policy change.
“We didn’t want it to happen this way – it wasn’t our intention for it to happen this way – but unfortunately, he made that decision”, Lamb said.
