"Suspect in Virginia slayings of 8 surrenders after 18-hour manhunt"
[
A man suspected of shooting eight people to death has been charged with one
count of first-degree murder, but authorities said other charges were likely.
Christopher Bryan Speight, a 39-year-old security guard, surrendered to police
at daybreak Wednesday after leading authorities on an 18-hour manhunt after the
shootings at a house in rural central Virginia. He had no weapons when he
surrendered wearing a bulletproof vest over a black fleece jacket, camouflage
pants and mud-caked boots.
Bomb squads had found "multiple" explosives at Speight's home and were
detonating them into the night.

A security guard, AKA a government trained, licensed and endorsed
person. Infinitely more qualified to carry a gun more than you or me.
Thank You,

Some are ex-military and very highly qualified. Others can barely hit
a large silhouette at 7 yards. Training requirements vary from none
in some states to 40 hours in others. Training is conducted by
private individuals or firms, not the government.
