   (CNN)After he shot two journalists on live TV and before he shot   
   himself, Bryce Williams sent a message: "I've been a human   
   powder keg for a while....just waiting to go BOOM."   
      
   Those were the words the gunman wrote in a chilling fax to ABC   
   News, according to the network. The document purportedly from   
   the Virginia shooter came after he gunned down WDBJ-TV   
   journalists Alison Parker and Adam Ward, spurring a manhunt that   
   ended when he turned a gun on himself as troopers closed in.   
      
   The shooter -- a former reporter for the Roanoke station -- is   
   dead, but the investigation into Wednesday's attack is far from   
   over. Authorities say the fax to ABC, the gunman's other   
   attempts to reach out to the media and his social media posts   
   just after opening fire could be key pieces of evidence as they   
   try to pinpoint what led to the deadly shooting.   
      
   Franklin County Sheriff Bill Overton said authorities weren't   
   sure about the gunman's motive, but are looking at his past   
   employment at WDBJ as well other evidence, including the fax he   
   allegedly sent to ABC News in New York.   
      
   "Many of you have gotten a lot of the correspondence, emails   
   that had been sent out. It's obvious that ... this gentleman was   
   disturbed in some way of the way things had transpired," and   
   that "at some point in his life, things spiraled out of   
   control," Overton said.   
      
   According to ABC, a 23-page fax to the network arrived almost   
   two hours after the shooting. It came from someone who   
   identified himself as Bryce Williams, the on-air name gunman   
   Vester L. Flanagan II used when he worked as a reporter.   
      
   In the message, according to ABC, the gunman said the   
   Charleston, South Carolina, church shooting in June is what put   
   him over the edge, but he wrote that his "anger has been   
   building steadily" because of racial discrimination and sexual   
   harassment he claims to have endured.   
      
   The writer expressed admiration for the shooters who massacred   
   students at Columbine High School killers and Virginia Tech. And   
   he said he put a deposit down for a gun two days after the   
   Charleston shooting.   
      
   "As for Dylann Roof? You (deleted)! You want a race war   
   (deleted)? BRING IT THEN YOU WHITE (deleted)!!!" the document   
   reportedly said.   
      
   Shocking morning broadcast   
      
   During a live broadcast from near Moneta, at about 6:45 a.m., TV   
   viewers saw the camera fall to the ground and caught the   
   briefest glimpse of a man who appeared to point a gun toward the   
   downed cameraman.   
      
   The station cut away to a shocked anchor back in the studio.   
      
   Later, the station reported that Parker, 24, and Ward, 27, had   
   been killed.   
      
   And the TV station's camera wasn't the only one rolling.   
      
   Two videos posted on a Twitter account under the name Bryce   
   Williams show someone walking up to the WDBJ news crew and   
   pointing a gun at them.   
      
   Another tweet said, "I filmed the shooting." The Facebook and   
   Twitter account were suspended shortly after the tweets.   
      
   Video shows the gunman approaching Parker, a WDBJ reporter, and   
   photographer Ward as Parker conducted a routine interview for a   
   local story.   
      
   Ward's back is to the gunman. Parker is in profile, and the   
   interviewee is facing the gunman. The shooter appears to take   
   his time aiming the gun, presenting it and then withdrawing it,   
   before composing the angle of his video. He opens fire on Parker   
   first. Both Parker and the interview subject scream.   
      
   Police are not sure how the gunman knew Parker and Ward were   
   reporting from Bridgewater Plaza, Overton said.   
      
   Authorities tracked the shooter's cell phone to locate him,   
   according to federal officials and the Augusta County Sheriff's   
   Department.   
      
   Just before 11:30 a.m., Virginia State Police saw the car they   
   believed Williams was driving headed east on Interstate 66. With   
   emergency lights activated, a trooper tried to pull him over,   
   police said.   
      
   The driver refused to stop and sped away before running off the   
   road and crashing into an embankment around mile marker 17.1 in   
   Fauquier County, more than 170 miles away from the site of the   
   shooting.   
      
   Troopers found the driver inside with a self-inflicted gunshot   
   wound, Virginia State Police Sgt. F.L. Tyler told reporters. He   
   was transported to a hospital and pronounced dead Wednesday   
   afternoon, Tyler said.   
      
   Gunman was fired from station   
   Williams was a reporter at WDBJ for about a year, according to a   
   former employee of the station. He was fired from that job,   
   though the reason was not made public, the ex-employee said.   
      
   "Two years ago, we had to separate him from the company. We did   
   understand that he was still living in the area," WDBJ General   
   Manager Jeff Marks said.   
      
   Dan Dennison told CNN affiliate KHNL in Honolulu that he was the   
   news director who hired Williams at WBDJ in 2012 and then fired   
   him the following year, mostly for performance issues. Dennison   
   said he didn't want to share too many details of the firing, but   
   said it was the toughest termination decision he'd ever handled   
   and that police had to be called to escort Williams out of the   
   building.   
      
   (Williams) had a level of a long series of complaints against co-   
   workers nearly from the beginning of employment at the TV   
   station," said Dennison, who is now spokesman for the Hawaii   
   Department of Land and Natural Resources.   
      
   "That really had nothing to do with his termination, and after a   
   lot of investigation both internally and externally, all of   
   these allegations were deemed to be unfounded. And they were   
   largely under, along racial lines, and we did a thorough   
   investigation and could find no evidence that anyone had   
   racially discriminated against this man," he said.   
      
   Marks, the station's current general manager, said he'd heard   
   Williams had leveled accusations in the past, but he noted that   
   he and Parker hadn't worked at the station at the same time.   
      
   "I don't think (reporter) Alison (Parker) and that individual   
   even overlapped here," he said.   
      
   According to tweets from the Bryce Williams account, Alison had   
   "made racist comments," while "Adam went to hr on me after   
   working with me one time!!!" There was no elaboration, and CNN   
   was unable to immediately confirm whether either claim was true.   
      
   Court documents indicate Williams crossed paths with Ward on the   
   day he was fired.   
      
   Ward filmed the former reporter's angry outburst as police tried   
   to get him to leave the station's building, according to the   
   documents, which are part of a lawsuit Flanagan filed against   
   the TV station.   
      
   That day, Williams also handed his manager a small wooden cross,   
   and said "You'll need this," before being escorted out of the   
   building by police.   
      
   The court documents outline months of disciplinary action   
   against Williams. In addition to describing multiple meetings   
   about his anger and behavior, they show that station management   
   told him to seek counseling.   
      
   Did gunman post executions to social media?
