FBI releases never-seen-before surveillance video of Navy Yard gunman moments before rampage

The FBI has just released never-seen-before surveillance video of the Navy Yard gunman moments before the massacre.

The video, uploaded to the FBI's YouTube channel, shows Aaron Alexis with a shotgun walking through the building.

KRMG also learned that Alexis had the following sayings engraved on his on his sawed-off shotgun:

  • "end to the torment"
  • "not what ya'll say"
  • "better off this way"

The FBI says he acted alone and was not targeting anyone.

Alexis had legitimate access to the Navy Yard as a result of his work as a contractor and he utilized a valid pass to gain entry to Building #197.
The FBI says Alexis used a Remington 870 shotgun and a Beretta handgun he obtained during the course of his shooting to kill 12 victims and wound four surviving victims before he was shot and killed by law enforcement officers.

The FBI also released several photos from that morning. They can be viewed here.
