"Virginia Beach's darkest hour." 12 shoot dead.

At least 12 are feared dead four others injured after a shooting, Friday afternoon at the Virginia Beach Municipal Center.

The shooting began late Friday afternoon when a man opened fire on all three floors of the municipal center's Building 2, which houses the operations building for the city that includes multiple departments.

The gunman was DeWayne Craddock, a 15-year employee of the city of Virginia Beach, Said Cervera.

Craddock, 40, was a certified professional engineer in the city's public utilities department. He is listed on department press releases as a point of contact for information on local road projects over the last several years.

Craddock served in the Army National Guard as a private after attending Denbigh High School in Newport News, Virginia, according to a 1996 report from the Daily Press newspaper.

While Craddock was identified as the shooter, Cervera said he would mention his name only once.

"He will be forever referred to as 'the suspect,' because our focus now is the dignity and respect for the victims of this case and to their families," he said.
