Vester Lee Flanagan ,41, also known as Bryce Williams is reportedly dead. Reports are the authorities had confronted him on the highway were he shot himself. Flanagan recorded the shooting on a cell phone from just meters away while he live tweeted the entire ordeal .
He was said to have died at 1:30 p.m. at the Fairfax hospital as a result of the self-inflicted gunshot. Franklin County sheriff Bill Overton gave a press conference updating the situation announcing Williams was indeed dead. Overton said that Williams ,’sent a lengthy multi-page fax to a news organization in New York about the incident’. This seems to confirm the reports of a 23 page manifesto that was sent to ABC from Williams.
Law enforcement was able to spot Williams’ car on Interstate 66 and followed him until back up arrived. That is when he sped away and eventually crashed. Sheriff Overton would not give a clear motive other than saying, ‘This gentleman was disturbed at some way at the way things had transpired in his life…it appears that things had spiraled out of control.’
