North Carolina gunman’s elaborate ambush was foiled by a single iPhone video the night before the massacre

North Carolina authorities say the highly premeditated ambush at a waterfront restaurant this past weekend, which tragically killed three people, might have originally been planned for the night before. Apparently, it was foiled by a single, accidental cellphone video. The gunman, Nigel Max Edge, 40, is accused of opening fire from a boat just off the deck of the American Fish Company in Southport on Saturday night.

The shooting killed three people, including a recently retired mother of three, Joy Rogers, and wounded eight more. According to a video obtained by People, the suspect may have first tried to carry out his attack on Friday night during a concert at the popular spot. The wife of local musician Dane Britt was outside recording a video of the performance when her camera picked up a boat lurking in the darkness of the water.
