On March 8, 2026, a targeted mass shooting primarily against Furries occurred at the Alpha Corporation headquarters in Redcliff City. At approximately 10:14 a.m., the suspect, identified as 33-year-old Feroze Daryush, entered the building armed with a .357 Magnum revolver. The attack resulted in the deaths of five employees before Daryush took his own life in a first-floor restroom. The incident remains the deadliest targeted workplace shooting in Redcliff history and is widely cited as a "copycat" of the 2012 Club Topia Shooting due to the perpetrator's explicit idolization of Jarone Oni.
Background
Alpha Corporation was a logistics firm specializing in cross-city trade. In early 2026, the company implemented an "Efficiency Overhaul," which favored the hiring and promotion of Furry employees over human staff to improve corporate branding. Feroze Daryush, a six-year veteran of the company who lived paycheck to paycheck, was passed over for a logistics promotion in favor of a newer furry employee. Coworkers described Daryush as increasingly irritable and paranoid in the weeks leading up to the attack.
Before the shooting
The Termination and Financial Collapse
On March 2, 2026, 33-year-old Feroze Daryush was officially terminated from Alpha Corporation. Having lived paycheck to paycheck for years, the loss of his primary income acted as a total disaster for his personal life. Witnesses recalled that Daryush didn't make a scene upon receiving the news; instead, he left the building in a state of "unsettling silence."
Radicalization and the "Oni" Influence
Following his firing, Daryush retreated to the internet. He became deeply embedded in Anti-Furry extremist groups and "traditionalist" forums. His browser history later revealed a disturbing obsession with the 2012 Club Topia Massacre. He spent his final week studying the tactics of Jarone Oni, viewing him not as a mass murderer, but as a "revolutionary" who stood up against a changing social landscape.
On fringe imageboards, Daryush began posting that "Traditional Robloxians" were being erased by "Degenerate Subcultures." He specifically identified Alpha Corporation as the "Epicenter of the Rot" in Redcliff City, citing their inclusive hiring policies and the presence of an outspoken LGBTQ+ HR Manager as proof of a conspiracy against workers like himself.
Declining Mental Health and Medical Neglect
In the seven days leading up to the shooting, Daryush’s mental health plummeted. Neighbors in his apartment complex reported hearing loud crashes and shouting coming from his unit at all hours.

When investigators later searched his residence, they found a completely trashed apartment. Furniture was overturned, and the walls were scrawled with manifestos and references to the Club Topia anniversary. Most notably, police found several bottles of anti-depressants in the bathroom. Forensic testing of the remaining pills confirmed that Daryush had ceased taking his medication approximately three weeks prior, a decision that likely accelerated his violent descent.
Investigators found that Feroze posted this the day he had been fired.

"The 'Efficiency Overhaul' is finally complete.
I gave Alpha Corp six years. I gave them my youth, my health, and my sanity for a cubicle that didn't even pay enough for rent. Today, I found out my desk belongs to a furry now because it 'fits the new brand.'
They think they can replace us with these 'things' and we'll just fade away into the streets. They think we’ll just starve quietly. Jarone Oni knew better in 2012. He knew that when you ignore a man's rights, you lose your own right to safety.
To the Manager on the 1st Floor: I hope the diversity bonus was worth it.

Weapon Acquisition and the "Livetopia" Post
The post.
Daryush acquired two weapons: a 9mm pistol and a .357 Magnum revolver. On March 7, the day before the shooting, he posted a photo of the 9mm pistol in its tactical case to social media with the caption: "Round 2 of livetopia tomorrow." While he never brought the 9mm into the building, investigators believe he initially planned the shooting to be on a much larger scale.
Day of the shooting
Daryush’s landlord, Arthur Vance, arrived at the apartment to serve a final eviction notice. Daryush had been three months behind on rent and had ignored all previous correspondence.
Vance used his master key to enter after receiving no response. He found the apartment in a state of "total psychological collapse." The walls were gouged, and the living room was a graveyard of smashed electronics and shredded furniture. However, amidst the absolute chaos, the desk remained untouched.
Vance discovered the desk cleared of all debris, with a single, typed sheet of paper placed dead-center titled "The Oni of Logic." Panic-stricken by the mention of "six rounds" and "Watch the news," Vance immediately called 911. However, due to a high volume of calls in the Redcliff district that morning, the report was still being processed by dispatch at 10:14 a.m.— the exact moment Daryush entered the Alpha Corporation lobby.
"I’ve spent months looking at the photos from Club Topia. People called Oni a monster, but he was just the only one awake in a world of sleepers.
Redcliff is rotting. It’s not just about the job anymore; it’s about the erasure of the traditional worker. They’ve turned our offices into playgrounds for the 'inclusive.' They fire the hungry human to hire the shiny Furry.
I have six rounds in the cylinder. One for the man who signed my termination. One for the thing that took my chair. Two for the people who let them in. And one for the system. The last one is for me.
The shooting
The Beginning of the Shooting
The post he made 10 minutes before the shooting.
At approximately 10:14 a.m. on March 8, 2026, Feroze Daryush arrived at the Alpha Corporation parking lot in his personal vehicle. Security footage from the exterior of the building shows him sitting in the driver's seat for nearly ten minutes. He reportedly kept a digital copy of Oni’s 911 call on his phone, listening to it to "steel his nerves" before the attack.
Daryush exited the vehicle wearing a formal shirt, concealing his .357 Magnum revolver beneath his belt. He entered the building through the main glass revolving doors. Unlike many active shooter situations involving rapid fire, Daryush moved with a "calculated, rhythmic pace."
As soon as he cleared the entry, he walked directly toward the reception island. Without speaking, he drew the revolver and fired two rounds over the counter. Sarah Jenkins and Leo Vance, the two front-desk receptionists, were both struck while attempting to take cover. Forensic reports later confirmed they died almost instantly.
As other employees in the lobby began to flee toward the elevators and stairwells, Daryush turned his attention to the open floor. He spotted Kai Sterling, a logistics coordinator who was a white fox furry. Daryush fired a third round, striking Sterling in the chest. Sterling collapsed near the central lounge area, becoming the third fatality of the morning.

The Executive Suite and Bathroom Massacre
Daryush ignored the fleeing crowd and moved toward the secure wing on the first floor. Using a security keycard that Alpha Corp had failed to deactivate upon his firing, he gained entry to the glass-walled management offices. He walked directly into the office of Robert Henderson, the Regional Manager who had signed Daryush’s termination papers six days prior. Henderson, an orange fox furry, was seated at his desk.

Daryush fired one round into the office, killing Henderson instantly. With only two rounds remaining in his revolver, he exited the suite and headed toward the back corridor. He entered the public restroom, where he encountered David Wu, the HR representative who had assisted in his termination meeting. Daryush fired his fifth round, striking Wu in the head.
End of Shooting
At 10:21 a.m., exactly seven minutes after Daryush entered the building, a final, muffled shot was heard from the restroom area. The Redcliff Police & Swat arrived on the scene three minutes later. They found the lobby in a state of chaos, with several employees hiding under desks and the victims in the lobby deceased.
The RTU moved to the back of the building, where they discovered David Wu's body near the restroom entrance. Upon entering the restroom, they found Feroze Daryush deceased from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. He had successfully used all six rounds in his revolver, matching the "Six Rounds" manifesto he had written in his room earlier that morning.

Post News Interview
The following is a transcript of an exclusive Rox News segment titled "The Shadow in the Cubicle," featuring an interview with Jameson "Jamie" Park, a Senior Logistics Analyst who worked in the cubicle directly adjacent to Feroze Daryush for nearly four years.
Sandra Holloway: On the morning of March 8th, you were in the breakroom when the shooting began. What was your first realization that something was wrong? Jameson Park: It was the sound. A revolver has this heavy, mechanical crack.It’s not like the movies. It was rhythmic. Crack. Pause. Crack.I looked through the breakroom's blinds and saw him walking toward the manager’s office. He wasn't running or shouting. He was pacing himself. Like he was checking items off a list.
