Two people are dead and one person is suffering life-threatening injuries after a former employee walked into a Baton Rouge, Louisiana, construction company office and opened fire, sheriff's officials said.
The suspect came into the Grady Crawford Construction Co. office and began shooting, hitting three people, said Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office Public Information Officer Casey Rayborn Hicks.
After the shooting, the suspect "came out of the business and the yard foreman wrestled him to the ground and got the gun away from him," Hicks said.
The suspect is in custody, Hicks said, and has been transported to the sheriff's office in downtown Baton Rouge.
As he was escorted in for questioning, in response to a reporter's question about the shooting, the suspect replied numerous times: "I couldn't get my unemployment, they wouldn't give me my unemployment."
