WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – The gunman behind Tuesday's mass shooting at a Walmart in Chesapeake, Virginia used a 9mm handgun purchased on the morning of the attack, the municipal government said on Friday.
"Police can also confirm that the suspect used a 9mm handgun," the City of Chesapeake stated on its Twitter account. "The gun was legally purchased from a local store on the morning of Tuesday, November 22, 2022."
The city also shared that a box of ammunition and other items related to the gun – a box, receipt, and other paperwork – were found at the suspect’s house.
Police also found a rambling note typed on the suspect’s phone from the
crime scene that referred to grievances and betrayals with "associates," and concluded with "My God forgive me for what I am going to do."
The US media reported on Friday that in his note, the suspect said that his co-workers were "idiots" who laughed at him and compared him to serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer.
