The wife of one of the five shooting victims who were killed last week in Aurora, Illinois, revealed her husband's last text message to her: "I love you, I've been shot at work."

Five people were gunned down at water valve manufacturer Henry Pratt Co. on Friday when an employee, Gary Martin, who was being fired, went on a shooting rampage at the workplace, wounding six law enforcement officers in the process.

According to authorities, Martin, who was fatally shot at the scene of the incident and had worked for 15 years at the plant, had been called into a meeting and was being fired when he began shooting. Josh Pinkard was among three people at the meeting who were killed.
