At least a dozen employees had been celebrating when the gunman, who had been recently laid off, entered the party and began firing a gun, according to Vancouver Police spokesperson Const. Tim Fanning.
The other partygoers managed to escape unharmed.
"The shock was tremendous but all the other people in the business - and there another dozen other people who were there for a Christmas party - managed to get out safely," Fanning said.
Police locked down the neighbourhood before the suspect turned himself in around 6 p.m.
Police said Kirkpatrick was let go on Dec. 11.
