Arizona man hailed as 'good Samaritan' after he shot gunman who opened fire in Amazon warehouse

"As soon as I saw employees running, I just put my van and drive and got out of here as quickly as I could," said Bryton Bobbitt, an Amazon employee, as per FOX 10. "I just heard popping, four or five pops, then went into a co-worker's car and then took off, and then we parked for a minute, then we started hearing more shots," Amazon employee Nick said. "He did come to the aid of an individual who was shot by a suspect. So, in that case, I would say he is a good Samaritan," Sgt Jason McClimans reportedly said.

According to a statement released by police on Friday, Murphy was found dead in the parking lot when they arrived at the scene and the investigation has concluded that he died from both a gunshot wound from the armed employee and a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

According to the police, the victim who Murphy shot first, "is still recovering and will survive." The person who stepped in to help the victim is not being looked into as a suspect, the Chandler Police Department stated in a statement.

"We're deeply saddened by this senseless act of violence in our parking lot. We're working closely with law enforcement as they investigate and are focused on supporting our team during this difficult time," said Amazon spokesman Richard Rocha, as per the report.
