Farooq Saeed has been identified as the possible San Bernardino shooting suspect, who reports indicate walked into a medical facility for people with developmental disabilities and opened fire.
The shooting took place at close to 11 a.m. in the 1300 block of South Waterman Avenue in the California city, taking place at a building identified as the Inland Regional Center. The facility is a state-run medical center that serves people with developmental disabilities, said Nancy Lungren, spokeswoman for the California Department of Developmental Services.
Unconfirmed reports identified the suspect as Farooq Saeed, a name repeated on police scanners and reported from some American news outlets.
Reports indicated that the suspect may have been an employee of the medical facility, and is believed to have fled the scene in an SUV.
Police said in a news conference that as many as 14 people were killed and another 14 wounded.
Police used a robot to search for possible explosive devices, and the police scanner noted of a possible IED.
The gunman appeared calculated, a friend of a surviving victim told CNN.
"The guy came in next to her office and I guess started shooting," the friend said, via People magazine. "They see bodies on the floor. Ambulances are taking people out in stretchers."
Local officials said they were shocked not only by the attack, but by the target.
"We are a non-profit agency that provides services to kids and adults with disabilities. It's beyond words," an employee at the San Diego branch of the Inland Regional Center told People.
While it is not yet clear whether the San Bernardino shooting was an act of terrorism, the massacre did prompt a response from Department of Homeland Security. Flight radar information showed that a Homeland Security Pilatus PC12 has been circling over San Bernardino at close to 7,300 feet. Officials from the FBI and ATF also responded to the scene.
In a news conference Wednesday afternoon, FBI official said they did not know if the attack was an act of terrorism, but officials said the men "came prepared" with long guns and body armor.
Laz,
I don’t care about the elites or what they think any more.
I was more interested in making a point, should things go south in the near future.
bill o’reilly talking about this now
The Grand bloviator, Bill OReilly is pushing caution against two guests on just now, one a Mr Aaron Cohen, founder of the IMS counter-terrorism school,, confirmed what the other guest, a Mr. Jim Hansen, Center for Security Policy VP, who mentioned the identity Farooq Saeed was first noted on police scanner. Hansen suggests the name is a common name...no specific official confirmation yet.
So Laz, what happened to “hiding his identify”???
You are such a jackass.
Show me the post in which I said they would.
G'head, ya motherless moron. LOL
See Post 40. Your words backing up the original poster:
“You underestimate the pernicious duplicity of today’s media. They have gone from biased, in the 1970’s and 1980’s, to suppressers of some truths and promoters of others in the 1990’s, to strident activists in the 2000’s, to an outright Ministry of Propaganda now.”
Name calling now? A sure sign you’re losing an argument when you have to make it personal
Dude. You really DO have a reading comprehension problem. My statement didn’t even back the poster. I was noting that I wouldn’t be surprised, because of how bad the news media is.
And you admit that you cannot find a post in which I said what you claimed I said. Good. So now we know you make up quotes. You should go work for the ‘news media’! Yer a natural!
Freakin loser butthurt boy. LOL
“Officials from the FBI and ATF also responded to the scene.”
Translation: If Mad Mo’s boys are involved, they will swoop in, collect everything, and slap a national security stamp on the case. Everything will be covered up by the weekend and the MSM will be speculating (per the provided script) that right wing fanatics were involved.
Smells like ISIS.
BTW: Quick note, I name call when I am winning arguments, too.
You shiftless no-account broke-ass freak.
“I was told the suspects were lily white.”
Nobody knows that yet, I just heard the police chief say at a news conference that he does not know the race of the 2 dead suspects, just that they are one male and one female. But Muslims can be of any race. Those Boston marathon bombers were white, I wouldn’t say they were lilly white, but they were caucasians.
Hardly. Name calling is also called for when ones opponent insists on attending to superfluity and ignoring salience.
You trust the Gobment...and the MSM more than I.....
Too true! Good post!
Thanks. Share if disposed to do so.
Yes, that was the first description, White, wearing military gear.
Now we know that was not true.
Thanks. Share if disposed to do so.
