CDC shooter died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Georgia investigators say
Advertisement The suspect's family was fully cooperating with the investigation, authorities said at the Tuesday news briefing. White had no known criminal history, Hosey said. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Executing a search warrant at White's home, authorities recovered written documents that are being analyzed, and seized electronic devices that are undergoing a forensic examination, the agency said. Investigators also recovered a total of five firearms, along with other critical evidence, the agency said. Hosey said White broke into a secured safe to get the weapons, including a gun that belonged to his father that he used in the attack. 'More than 500 shell casings have been recovered from the crime scene,' the GBI said in a statement Tuesday. Officials are conducting a threat assessment to the CDC facility and making sure they notify officials of any threats. Advertisement The shooting Friday broke about 150 windows across the CDC campus, with bullets piercing 'blast-resistant' windows and spattering glass shards into numerous rooms, and pinned many employees down during the barrage. White had been stopped by CDC security guards before driving to a pharmacy across the street, where he opened fire from a sidewalk, authorities said. US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. toured the CDC campus on Monday, accompanied by Deputy Secretary Jim O'Neill and CDC Director Susan Monarez, according to a health agency statement. Kennedy also visited the DeKalb County Police Department, and later met privately with the slain officer's wife. 'No one should face violence while working to protect the health of others,' Kennedy said in a statement Saturday that said top federal health officials are 'actively supporting CDC staff.' He did not speak to the media during his visit Monday. Some unionized CDC employees called for more protections against attack. Kennedy was a leader in a national anti-vaccine movement before President Trump selected him to oversee federal health agencies, and has made false and misleading statements about the safety and effectiveness of about COVID-19 shots and other vaccines. Years of false rhetoric about vaccines and public health was bound to 'take a toll on people's mental health,' and 'leads to violence,' said Tim Young, a CDC employee who retired in April.
