Disgruntled Sushi Chef Shoots 13 At Kroger Supermarket, Kills One, Shooter Dies As Well

A man opened fire at a Kroger supermarket in Tennessee on Thursday afternoon, shooting 13 people.

Twelve people currently have "very serious injuries," and one is dead, according to Collierville Police Chief Dale Lane.

"With a broken heart, I have to stand here before you today," Lane said in a press conference Thursday afternoon.

Lane said the shooter had died from a suspected self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. He was found dead in the rear of the store by officers, police said in a statement.

“We found people hiding in freezers and in locked offices, and they were doing what they were trained to do,” Lane said.

The shooting happened around 1:30 p.m. at the supermarket in Collierville, a suburb of Memphis.

"He shot off about 12 shots as I got to my car," wrote Jason Lusk, who'd been at the supermarket and posted some videos from the scene on Facebook.

Multiple videos and photos on social media show a man on the roof of the supermarket with a gun, but it is unlikely that was the shooter. At the press conference, Lane said police had "extradited an employee from Kroger from the roof."

Source says shooter was Kroger employee who was fired today. Was told he worked at the sushi stand .
