You Won’t Believe Who the D.C. Mass Shooter Was

The DC shooter who shot six people and killed one was unofficially reported to be a 55-year-old emergency physician named Dr. Matt Lambert.

Really, an emergency room doctor.

He allegedly had long-term disputes with building management over mold and water damage. No other information is available. The attack was allegedly due to frustration.

Lambert “opened fire in multiple locations in D.C., including in and near a Vida Fitness gym.”

This is crazy.

The Story

Police said the attacker opened fire in multiple locations in D.C., including in and near a Vida Fitness gym. The gunman then barricaded himself inside a nearby condo where he apparently lived. He shot himself, police said, before being pronounced dead at the scene.

The attacker spoke to police for more than an hour and fired shots through the unit’s door, according to interim D.C. police chief Jeffery Carroll.

Lambert had filed a lawsuit alleging that the building’s condo association failed to act on his complaints.

Charelle Ferguson, a building manager for the Metropole, said that Matt Lambert answered her phone call around 9 a.m. and said that he was tired of the mold and water damage in his unit, which, he’d told her previously, had rendered it unlivable.

“The only way people will pay attention, you have to do something,” Lambert said, Ferguson recalled in an interview with The Washington Post. He then confessed to her that he had shot five people.

James Stuart, 46, a manager at the condo building, was killed inside the gym during the attack, police said Thursday. Four other people were injured.

The Doctor lived in the penthouse.

He paid almost $1.1 million for the one bedroom condo in 2016, according to property records. The building is in the affluent Logan Circle neighborhood, nearly a mile north of the White House.

Authorities have not identified any of the victims.
