Victims and Gunman Identified In Molson Coors Shooting

Authorities are still searching for answers after a gunman killed five of his co-workers before taking his own life at the Molson Coors headquarters in Milwaukee on Wednesday (February 26).

The five victims were identified as Dale Hudson, 60; Gennady Levshetz, 61; Jesus Valle Jr., 33; Dana Walk, 57; and Trevor Wetselaar, 33.

The shooter was identified as Anthony Ferrill, 51. While officials have not determined a motive for the attack, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that he had a long-running dispute with another employee.

One of Ferrill's co-workers told the newspaper that Ferrill, who worked at the facility as an electrician for 17 years, felt he was being discriminated against because he was African American. When asked by reporters if the racial tensions played a role in the shooting, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett refused to comment.

"Right now, there's an investigation going on, and I think it's premature to speculate on anything," Barrett said. "I think this is the time to be there to grieve and to support the families."
