A shocking first person point of view video has emerged of the gunman who shot two WDBJ reporters in Virginia earlier today.

WARNING: GRAPHIC FOOTAGE. VIEWER DISCRETION STRONGLY ADVISED.

Footage shot personally by gunman Vester Flanagan, AKA Bryce Williams, and uploaded to social media, shows him aiming a gun at WDBJ reporter Alison Parker in very close proximity to her and cameraman Adam Ward.

In the video, Flanagan walks up to the news crew unbeknownst to them as they film a report, waiting for about 30 seconds before he opens fire on them.

The graphic video was found on Flanagan’s Facebook page, which has since been taken down. Other uploads of the video have also been removed by Youtube and Facebook.

The shooting is believed to have been motivated by racism.
