A Twitter account under the name Bryce Williams, now suspended, had video of the shooting in Roanoke and a claim that one of the victims, Alison Parker, had made “racist comments.”
The account, which began posting several weeks ago and was suspended at about 11:20 a.m., also published a series of messages hinting at a possible motive in the attack, which was captured on live TV.
“(Victim) Alison (Parker) made racist comments,” the account tweeted, followed by, “They hired her after that???” and “(Victim) Adam (Ward) went to hr on me after working with me one time!!!”
The account also posted a series of videos leading up to and showing the early moments of the shooting.
Vester Lee Flanagan used the name Bryce Williams on the air.
