‘Pizzagate’ Gunman Fatally Shot by Police During Traffic Stop in North Carolina
The man who fired his rifle into a pizza shop in Washington, D.C. in 2016 was fatally shot by North Carolina police over the weekend. He allegedly pulled a gun on officers during a traffic stop, according to a statement.
Edgar Maddison Welch walked into family-friendly Comet Ping Pong with a Ar-15 semiautomatic rifle in 2016, believing the Pizzagate conspiracy theories claiming the restaurant was a hub for child sex trafficking. As customers and employees fled the scene, Welch entered the kitchen and shot open a locked door, which contained cooking supplies.
