WDBJ7 TV reporter Alison Parker, 24, and cameraman Adam Ward, 27, both were killed and a woman interviewed at the time of the attack was wounded.
The woman, identified as Vicki Gardner, is reportedly out of emergency surgery.
“She is currently recovering and is in stable condition,” a spokesman for Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital is reported by local news paper The Roanoke Times as saying.
Vicki Gardner was being interviewed about the 50th anniversary of the founding of Smith Mountain Lake, a resort area near the Bridgewater Plaza, when the attack took place.
Williams was reported to have joined the WDBJ news channel “as a multimedia journalist and general assignment reporter” in April 2012. He previously worked as a reporter at a number of local news stations in the southern US.
Vester Lee Flanagan, known professionally as Bryce Williams, was a former WDBJ7 staff member, police said.
The attack took place at a large shopping centre, Bridgewater Plaza, near Smith Mountain Lake.
