Employee Briana Tyler, who survived the incident, stated that 15 to 20 employees were gathered in a stock room going over the details of their assignments for the night when they heard the sound of gunfire break out in the store.

Tyler stated that it was by the grace of God that the gunfire did not hit her. She said she was close enough to the gun to see smoke. Thus, she came dangerously close to becoming a victim herself.
The violence only ended when authorities saw that Bing turned the gun on himself and died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
