26 year old Christopher O'Kroley from Wisconsin was charged with first-degree intentional homicide on Friday after he allegedly killed a former coworker, 24 year old Caroline Nosal in the parking lot of the market where they both worked.
The shooting took place at Metro Market Cottage Grove in Madison on Tuesday, a day after he was fired from his job.
Coworkers described the relationship between O'Kroley and Nosal, of Stoughton, as one that soured after O'Kroley 'wanted more'.
Christopher O'Kroley's bond was set at $1million on Friday after he was pushed into the courtroom in a wheelchair wearing a suicide-prevention smock, according to WKOW. An anti-suicide smock is a tear-resistant noose-proof form of clothing that officials put detainees in if they are on suicide watch.
He was also charged with first-degree reckless endangerment.

It was gathered that two weeks before the shooting, O'Kroley was suspended from work after Nosal told a store manager that she was being harassed by him.
O'Kroley told police that following his suspension, he began planning to kill Nosal and himself if he was fired, according to the Wisconsin State Journal.
He also told police when he was arrested on Wednesday that he would have shot Nosal to death a day earlier but he wanted to practice shooting the gun he had bought Monday before using it.
He went to their workplace Monday evening after practicing, but Nosal had left work. So O'Kroley went home, watched movies and ordered pizza before returning the next day to attempt the shooting again, police said.
He returned to the market the next day,Tuesday then carried out his threat. Christopher shot Nodal in the head and abdomen on her way home from work on the day, this was according to an eyewitness present at the scene of the shooting.
