(CNN) The Virginia Beach gunman appeared to target supervisors in his department in the early moments of a shooting spree that left 12 people dead on Friday, according to a survivor of the attack and a city councilman. Craddock, a longtime engineer in the city's Department of Public Utilities, submitted a short letter of resignation the morning of the shooting. Nettleton and Katherine Nixon, both longtime engineers with the city and supervisors in the public utilities department, sat in the back area of the second floor hallway. Randy Allen, another supervisor of the gunman's, was not injured during the shooting, according to a city official. On Tuesday, a spokeswoman for the Virginia Beach Police Department said she could not discuss the ongoing investigation.
