Three counts of murder have now been filed against a Moorhead man in yesterday’s workplace shooting in north Fargo.

35-year-old Anthony Reese is accused in the shooting deaths of Richard Pittman and April Carbone, who both worked at Composite America, a manufacturing company.

Reese also worked at the company and was fired prior to the shooting after a dispute with Pittman.

The complaint says Reese returned to the business, pulled a handgun and shot Pittman multiple times.  Reese then turned and fired several shots at Carbone.

Reese told police that he got rid of the handgun several blocks from the scene.  Detectives later found the 9 millimeter semi-automatic pistol.

Reese turned himself in at the police station, not from the scene.  Carbone was pregnant with Pittman’s child and their unborn girl also died.
