Group of CDC employees tells agency’s leadership they felt like ‘sitting ducks’ during shooting

From CNN.

Employees at the top US public health agency, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, were winding down their Friday when bullets smashed through their office windows, whizzing just over their cubicle walls.

Across the street from the CDC campus, a gunman — possibly motivated by a hatred of vaccines — had opened fire on the agency’s buildings, bringing panic to the upscale Atlanta neighborhood and the sprawling, open-access campus of Emory University that is adjacent to it.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation on Saturday identified Patrick Joseph White, 30, a resident of the Atlanta suburb Kennesaw, as the shooter. The investigation into what led to the shooting is ongoing.
