"I looked up and my manager just opened the door and he just opened fire."
When Briana Tyler went to work on Tuesday night, what she thought would be a quiet shift quickly ended in bloodshed.
Tyler, an employee at the Walmart on Sam's Circle in Chesapeake, Virginia, said she and her coworkers were gathered in the break room at the start of their shifts at around 10 p.m. local time, discussing which section of the store each employee would be working in that night.
"As soon as my team said, 'All right, we have a light night tonight,' I looked up and my manager just opened the door and he just opened fire," Tyler recalled during an interview with ABC News on Wednesday. "He wasn't aiming at anybody specifically. He just literally started shooting throughout the entire break room and I watched multiple people just drop down to the floor, whether they were trying to duck for cover or they were hit."
Tyler said the gunman looked "directly at" her and fired but "luckily missed" her head by "an inch or two."
"He didn't say a word, he didn't say anything at all," she noted. "I literally hadn't even seen him before that point. He just came around the corner and started shooting. The first person that was in his eyesight, he shot him down and the next thing you know, he just started rigging throughout the entire break room but he did not say a word."
