At appx 8:00 a.m. on August 9, John Parish entered the Western Transfer Company building in the central business district of Grand Prairie, to discuss for a last time with his supervisor Eddie Ulrich about his payment dispute. When the discussion did not go to his liking, Parish killed Ulrich, as well as truck driver Martin Moran and operations manager Moody Smith, before stealing a bobtail truck and driving to the Western Transport Co office half a block down the street. There he killed executive secretary Wyvonne Kohler.

Parish then went to Jewel T warehouse about four miles away, arriving there a few minutes later. There he killed district sales manager Dave Bahl, and then went to the shipping office, where he was confronted by warehouse supervisor Rick Svoboda. Parish was then killed by police after he fired upon them.
