A gunman who killed five people Wednesday, including a prominent doctor in South Carolina, was former NFL pro Phillip Adams, who killed himself early Thursday, according to a source who was briefed on the investigation.

The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak publicly, said Adams' parents live near the doctor's home in Rock Hill, and that he had been treated by the doctor. The source said Adams killed himself after midnight with a .45 caliber weapon. He was 32.

Adams played as a defensive back for multiple teams including the San Francisco 49ers and the Atlanta Falcons after starring at South Carolina State. He also suffered multiple injuries in the NFL, including concussions and a broken left ankle.

The York County Sheriff's Office said it had searched for hours before finding the suspect in a nearby home.

Everyone's saying "CTE" like it just explains this. Like yeah the guy probably had CTE but so did Junior Seau and Dave Duerson and both those guys literally just shot themselves in the chest to preserve their brain without going on a murderous rampage and killing 5 other innocent people.

The fact that he personally knew this doctor and had been treated by him would suggest this was targeted but "why" could be anyone's guess.
