Jacksonville shooter David Katz may have shot people because he was upset about losing in the video game competition.

According to Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams, Katz targeted other gamers competing in the southeast qualifier for Madden NFL 19. His shooting spree resulted in two deaths and 10 others with bullet wounds. Some were also injured in the rush to leave the venue. Katz was found dead through self-inflicted gunshots.
