The investigation into the deadly shooting at Wilmington Hospital has taken a stark turn after authorities confirmed that the suspect and both victims were colleagues. John Wallace‑Bey, a 23‑year‑old from New Castle, Delaware, is in custody after being apprehended in Philadelphia on 16 June.
Police allege that Wallace-Bey targeted the two 19-year-old victims inside the medical facility during the afternoon. The attack resulted in the death of one individual, while the second remains in a critical but stable condition as the community grapples with the violence.
