“It is understood a person barricaded themselves”
Is this ONE person schizophrenic?
Them is a perfectly good pronoun when gender is unknown. Try creating a sentence with a single person of unknown gender. Let’s see it.

Rodney Dangerfield:
I went to a shrink and he finally told me his diagnosis is I have a schizoid personality, there are two totally different people in my head. So then he gives me this big bill for his services. I told him: “Okay, here’s half. Get the rest from the other guy.”
It is understood that Brittany is either an AI robot or English is her second language.
Or jornalism skool is worse than ever. :)
Maybe some reporter needs to ask the LV police if the barricaded person is a male or female. Until that iota of journalist effort occurs, the Daily Mail could just use "himself" as a synecdoche.
BTW, shouldn't the statement be "barricaded in (or into) a bus" rather than "onto" (which could mean he has a barricade on top of the bus)?
Brittany is a retard
LOL! yes it was seven individuals in one meat sack.
