Default CBS reporter and cameraman shot dead live on air: USA
An American reporter and cameraman have been shot dead live on air during a report in Franklin County, Virginia.
Reporter Allison Parker and Camerman Adam Ward were conducting an interview with a woman at the Bridgewater Plaza when they were killed by an active shooter, reports say.

Video appears to show a WDBJ report ending in gunfire, with audible screams in the background.
Stills from the video show the incident unfold, before footage is interrupted and the live feed returns to the studio.
The shooting took place at the Bridgewater Plaza in Franklin County, Virginia on Wednesday morning, US time.

There are YouTube clips apparently. I think the news story gives enough detail, very sad situation. RIP to both and thoughts to the families and colleugues of Allison and Adam.

around 30 people a day die from gun related death in the USA (2013 figures) so they are just part of that 30

Do they know what the motivation behind the shooting was or was it just some random nut job?
