Jalloh, who died in Thursday's attack, was a former member of the Army National Guard.Dominique Evans, special agent in charge of the FBI Norfolk field office, said at a press conference Thursday that Jalloh shouted "Allahu Akbar" before opening fire. She credited ROTC members in the classroom for subduing Jalloh but did not elaborate on how he died, only saying that "he was not shot.""If not for them, I'm not sure what else he may have done," she said.
