CDC shooting aftermath: Here’s what we know

Investigators on Tuesday said they recovered more than 500 shell casings from the scene of last week’s chaotic shooting outside the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The disturbing detail, which illuminated the dramatic scope of Friday’s attack, was among several updates released by law enforcement.

DeKalb County police Officer David Rose was killed while responding to the incident. The gunman died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, law enforcement said, adding that they later found a document “that expressed the shooter’s discontent with the COVID-19 vaccinations.”

Bullets damaged numerous windows at the CDC’s Atlanta campus, and employees there are teleworking this week.
