Shayne Riggleman kills five in murder spree before shooting himself

Five people have been killed after a gunman went on a murder spree before fatally shooting himself while being chased by officers.

Shayne Riggleman, 22, of Morgantown, West Virginia, also ran over a woman before shooting and wounding a seventh victim.

He shot himself dead after the multiple slaying, in which he also killed an unbo baby, as he sat in a car in Kentucky following a police chase.

‘It was very horrific to see it,’ State Police Captain James Merrill told the West Virginia Metro News. ‘It was one of those things you won't forget.’

Riggleman's last Facebook post before the shooting said he was upset about being rejected from joining the military despite being ‘fully capable’.

Three of the five victims in Morgantown on Monday night were Charles Richardson III, 49, his wife Karin Richardson, 50, and Robert Raber Jr, 30.

The fourth and fifth victims were the Richardson couple’s two children - Katrina Hudson, 22, who was six months pregnant, and Kevin Hudson, 17.

Two bodies were found by police in the kitchen, two in the bathroom and one in the living room.

He then went to visit a friend in Fairchance, Pennsylvania, who ended up tipping off police.

Riggleman later ran over a woman after leaving. She is in a critical condition and was named by the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review as 60-year-old Sidney Lee Bush.

He then drove on to Kentucky, but stopped at an Exxon station in Roane County, West Virginia.

There he shot pump attendant Donald Nichols in the neck - and he was also left in a critical condition, but police said he is expected to recover.

Riggleman was later pulled over police in Lewis County, Kentucky, and shot and killed himself, reported the West Virginia Metro News.

Police found two rifles and a .22-calibre handgun in the car. They believe the killing spree would have continued if he had not been pulled over.

Other Facebook posts made recently by Riggleman included: ‘Revenge is a dish best served cold and God is the chef’.

Amber Christine Faulknier said: 'Omg Shayne! Why would you do this?! You had so many people to talk to and help you! I'm gonna miss you!'

Another friend, Rachel Legg, posted: 'What the hell happened? You were trying so hard to get your life back. I am really sad to hear this.'

Police said the crime was 'heinous' but will not reveal any possible motive, although they did confirm Riggleman was an 'acquaintance' of the victims.

Riggleman's Facebook page revealed he was agnostic and a socialist.
