Roundy's Warehouse Shooting Victims Identified

WAUKESHA COUNTY, WI—The two workers killed in the shooting Tuesday night at the Roundy's Distribution Center have been identified, according to a news conference on Thursday.

The victims were identified as Kevin Kloth, 50, of Germantown and Kevin Schneider, 39, of West Allis.

Waukesha County Sherriff Eric Severson said their focus now is motive which is not known at this time.

“We all want to know why," Severson said during the news conference.

The man who opened fire at the warehouse before fatally shooting himself was a 41-year-old from Wauwatosa, a law enforcement official said Thursday.

Waukesha County Sheriff's Office Lt. Nicholas Ollinger identified him as Fraron Cornelius.

Police said the suspect died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound Wednesday morning after crashing his car following a pursuit in Milwaukee.

The incident unfolded after 10:30 p.m. at Roundy's Distribution Center at 1111 Delafield Road, police said.

Police dispatched to the site found two people dead. A union official told The Associated Press a worker killed two of his co-workers at the distribution center.

Union stewards at the warehouse said the two men were shot in different areas of the massive warehouse, according to Thomas Bennett, the secretary-treasurer of General Teamsters Local Union No. 200. Bennett said he was unaware of any dispute between the shooter and the victims, who were all members of the union.

“All three of these workers were very important during this pandemic because they worked very hard to serve our community,” Bennett said, adding that it often meant long hours.

“Maybe things wear on you after while,” he said.
