Joe Louis Esquivel murdered three white co-workers in a Maryland plant. Four others were wounded. He’s being called a … wait for it … "West Virginia Man" by CBS:

The Daily Beast, on the other hand, calls him a "23-Year-Old."

Esquivel, above, is certainly not a "White Hispanic" like Ted Cruz, but I can’t tell from his mugshot if he has Mexican or Asian ancestors.

The Daily Mail has many links and pictures:

PICTURED: Maryland concrete plant worker, 23, who shot dead three co-workers and injured two others after working a full shift

The Daily Mail says

During a search of his home, investigators retrieved more firearms, the sheriff’s office said. The weapon used in the attack was a semi-automatic handgun.

The suspect’s mother told NBC Washington in an interview that she hasn’t spoken to her son since the shooting and has no idea what his motives were. She added that she didn’t know of any issues that he had work.

Hedgesville is located around 30 miles west of Smithsburg.

An NBC Washington report says

Esquivel was also injured and taken to a hospital. He is facing 25 charges, including three counts of first-degree murder, and is being held without bond.

He used a semi-automatic handgun to carry out the attack, according to the sheriff’s office. His motive for the shooting is still unclear.

As you can see, the Daily Mail says above that "a search of Esquivel’s West Virginia home resulted in the discovery of even more firearms" which sounds like news in London, but in fact a search of any West Virginia home is likely to result in the discovery of lots of firearms.

What’s more to the point is why Hedgesville, WV has a resident named Esquivel.

According to Wikipedia, in the year 2000, Hedgesville had a population of 240:

The racial makeup of the town was 92.08% White, 3.75% African American, 0.42% Native American, 0.42% Pacific Islander, and 3.33% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 0.83% of the population.

0.83% of the population of a town of 240 is two people.

As of the 2010 census, Hedgesville had grown to 318 people.

The racial makeup of the town was 90.3% White, 5.3% African American, 0.3% Native American, 0.3% Asian, 1.6% from other races, and 2.2% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 3.1% of the population.

3.1% of the population is 10 people, including presumably the Esquivels.

Esquivel was taken alive, so we may hear more about his motive.

What we usually find, when a member of a minority group shoots up his white co-workers at a plant, is that he was complaining of "racism." (Sometimes the MSM investigates the deceased for for "racism", to see if, as Steve Sailer puts it, they "had it coming.")

And of course, we're never allowed to ask what academics, theorists, reporters or politicians inspired that.

This is one of them:
