Two Dead in Tennessee Hospital Shooting
New York Times (04/19/10) Henry, Derrick
Reprinted from Security Management Daily April 20, 2010

A gunman shot three current or former employees of Parkwest Medical Center in Knoxville, Tenn., before killing himself on April 19. One of the women died at the scene and the other two were taken to the University of Tennessee Medical Trauma Center where at least one of the surviving victims is still in critical condition. Police are still trying to determine a motive for the shooting. Thus far no connections between the gunman and the women or the medical center have been found. The attack occurred near the patient discharge area of the hospital. The gunman, whose identity is being withheld pending notification of next of kin, was armed with a pistol, but it is unclear how many shots were fired.
