>> NOW, POLICE HAVE NOT
CONFIRMED THAT DETAIL ABOUT
SOMEONE TRYING TO ENGAGE THE
SHOOTER.
JOINING US NOW, NBC NEWS
CORRESPONDENT ANTONIA HILTON.
GOOD TO HAVE YOU WITH US.
WHAT MORE HAVE WE LEARNED THIS
HOUR?
>> WELL, AMIN, THE MOST CRITICAL
PIECE OF NEW INFORMATION WE HAVE
IS NOW THE IDENTITY OF THE
SHOOTER.
NBC NEWS WAS ABLE TO CONFIRM
THROUGH THREE INDEPENDENT LAW
ENFORCEMENT SOURCES THE SHOOTER
WAS A MAN NAMED BRANDON SCOTT
HULL, 19 YEARS OLD.
WHAT WE STILL DON’T KNOW ARE
BRANDON’S MAFGSOTIVATIONS, IF HE
ANY CONNECTION TO THIS FEXDDEX
FACILITY AND WE DON’T KNOW THE
BACKSTORIES OR THE IDENTITIES OF
THE VICTIMS WHO LOST THEIR LIVES
LAST NIGHT, EIGHT OF THEM.
AND PART OF THE REASON FOR THAT
IS THAT THE INVESTIGATION OVER
THE LAST SEVERAL HOURS HAS BEEN
CHALLENGING AND CHAOTIC.
THE CORONER’S OFFICE WAS UNABLE
TO ACT THE SITE TO GET IN AND
SEE THE BODIES FOR A WHILE,
BECAUSE OF THE ACTIVE OPEN CRIME
SCENE.
THEY’RE IN THERE NOW AND THEY
SAY THAT THEIR INVESTIGATION IS
GOING TO TAKE SEVERAL HOURS.
AND OFFICIALS SAY THE PROCESS OF
IDENTIFYING THE BODIES AND
CONTACTING FAMILY MEMBERS AND
LOVED ONES AND GIVING THEM
INFORMATION BEFORE NAMES BECOME
PUBLIC WILL BE A PAIN STAIKING
AND GRUELING ONE.
WHAT WE FOUND OUT IS THAT THE
EVENTS OF LAST NIGHT TOOK ABOUT
ONE TO TWO MINUTES FROM THE TIME
THE GUNMAN GOT OUT OF THE CAR
END ANDED UP KILLING EIGHT
PEOPLE WHO WORK BEHIND ME HERE.
BUT NOW WE ARE EIGHT HOURS INTO
THE INVESTIGATION AND IT REMAINS
EXTREMELY COMPLEX AND SO MANY
QUESTIONS UNANSWERED.
I WANT YOU TO TAKE A LISTEN TO
THE CHIEF DEPUTY CORONER AND
WHAT SHE SAID EARLIER TODAY.
>> THE STAFF IS DEFINITELY
SUFFERING AND IS GOING TO NEED
LONG-TERM COUNSELING WITH REGARD
TO THESE TYPES OF DEATHS.
IT ACTUALLY HAS -- YOU KNOW,
WE’VE HAD TO PULL IN ALL OF OUR
30 STAFF TO CONDUCT THESE DEATH
INVESTIGATIONS.
WE ARE ASKING FOR ADDITIONAL
RESOURCES SO WE WILL HAVE THE
CAPACITY TO HANDLE THESE TYPE OF
DEATH INVESTIGATIONS.
>> Reporter: YOU CAN HEAR THE
TOLL THAT THIS IS TAKING ON
THEIR TEAM.
AND OFFICIALS TOLD REPORTERS
THAT THIS IS THE THIRD MASS
CASUALTY EVENT IN INDIANAPOLIS,
JUST IN THIS YEAR.
YOU KNOW, AND THAT CHAOS IS NOT
JUST FOR THE PEOPLE RESPONDING
TO THE SCENE BUT ALSO FAMILIES
WHO WAITED FOR HOURS AT A
HOLIDAY INN NEARBY, TRYING TO
FIND OUT IF THEIR LOVED ONES ARE
STILL ALIVE.
NOT THAT LONG AGO, WE MET A
FORMER EMPLOYEE WHO STOOD OUT
HERE ON THIS FIELD, STARING AT
THE WHITE HOUSE, WAITING TO FIND
OUT IF HIS FRIENDS AND FORMER
COLLEAGUES ARE STILL ALIVE.
AND THAT IS THE FEELING RIGHT
NOW HERE IN THIS CITY, THAT
PEOPLE ARE WAITING ON EDGE TO
