Kenneth White had begged authorities for help as his son, Patrick Joseph White, was unleashing his reign of terror on the CDC's Atlanta headquarters last Friday, according to transcripts obtained by 11Alive.

Patrick Joseph White, 30, of Kennesaw, GA, was named as the suspect who police say opened fire at four CDC buildings in Atlanta and killed a DeKalb police officer. The suspect was named by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation on Aug.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) identified the suspect in Friday's deadly shooting at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC) headquarters as 30-year-old Patrick Joseph White. The GBI provided no additional information when contacted by Newsweek on Saturday morning.
