This winner shot two people to death at a Kroger's store today.
He is 51-year-old Gregory Alan Bush.
At a news conference Thursday, Jeffersontown Police Chief Sam Rogers said surveillance video shows the suspect tried unsuccessfully to enter the First Baptist church in Jeffersontown.
The church is headed by a black pastor and has a large African-American membership.
An arrest report says Bush then walked into the Kroger store outside Louisville, pulled a gun from his waist and shot a black man in the back of the head, then kept shooting him multiple times “as he was down on the floor.”
The report says Bush then reholstered his gun, walked outside and killed a black woman in the parking lot.
A man carrying a concealed weapon who happened to be in the parking lot challenged Bush, and police say the suspect then “began firing wildly” at him, putting other shoppers in the parking lot in danger.
Neither man was hurt in that confrontation, Rogers said.
