Shooting Louisville, KY: Vigil planned; gunman had mental health struggles, family says
Bank employee Connor Sturgeon, 25, used an AR-15 assault-style rifle in the attack Monday at Old National Bank, where he killed five coworkers while livestreaming before police fatThe mother of the shooter who killed five people at Old National Bank in Louisville, Kentucky, on Monday called 911 after hearing secondhand that her son had a gun and was heading toward the bank, according to 911 calls released by police Wednesday.
The call, which came in at 8:41 a.m. Monday, was one of a number of 911 calls released to the public Wednesday detailing the panic and fear during the mass shooting, in which the gunman, 25-year-old bank employee Connor Sturgeon, used a recently purchased AR-15-style rifle to shoot his coworkers and responding officers before he was shot dead by police.
Another caller, speaking in a whisper, said she works at the bank and is hiding in a closet. While on the line, several gunshots can be heard in the background.Other 911 calls came from another bank employee, a person who works at a nearby business and someone who was driving down the street and saw the gunman.
In a statement released Wednesday, the gunman's family laid out his mental health challenges but said they never saw any warnings signs of such an attack. "This is a total shock. He was a really good kid who came from a really good family," said the classmate, who asked not to be identified and has not spoken with Sturgeon in recent years. "I can't even say how much this doesn't make sense. I can't believe it."
Galloway's body camera footage shows him taking fire and then scrambling down some stairs to a safe position behind a planter. He tells other officers he can't see the gunman but notes the gunman is shooting through windows in the front of the bank, the video shows. At some point, Galloway was also shot.
The bystander footage, also released by police, was filmed across the street from the bank. The video shows Galloway taking cover behind the planter with his gun raised and pointed toward the building as he tries to locate the gunman's position.
