Two people were killed and three others wounded by a gunman investigators described as a 'disgruntled employee.'

A ‘disgruntled employee’ of a Chester linen company killed two coworkers and injured three others, police say

The three surviving victims were taken to Crozer-Chester Medical Center, where two were listed in critical condition Wednesday morning. Law enforcement sources and employees of the business confirmed that the gunman lived not far from where police took him into custody. He and his family had moved to the city from their native Puerto Rico in recent months.

They described a working environment that lent itself to getting to know their colleagues. In different sections, workers sorted, washed, and folded linens. Other employees also struggled to recall how long the shooter had worked there or if he had had any problems on the job. In those chaotic moments, Castro said she feared for her life. But she also worried about her sister, Esthe, 25, who was working at another washing machine. The two had separated as they fled from the gunfire, but later reunited.
