'They leave a void that we will never be able to fill.'
"I have worked with most of them for many years," Virginia Beach City Manager Dave Hansen told reporters on Saturday."They leave a void that we will never be able to fill."
Six of the victims were from the city's public utilities department where they worked as engineers, technicians, account clerks, administrative assistants, and as project coordinators. Five more victims were from the the public works department, where they worked as engineers or as right-of-way agents, land experts who determine property rights.
"We are going to wrap our arms around those that serve with us here in Virginia Beach," Hansen said,"and we are going to make sure that their families, their loved ones are taken care of and are supported and that we guide them through the days and weeks ahead."Forensics teams worked through the night to process the crime scenes and remove the bodies of the victims, which were found throughout the three-story building and in one vehicle outside.
At least four other people were said to have been seriously injured and were being treated in hospitals.
