Has there been any news on what caliber that whack-job has been shooting? If he's cracking off shots on South High street, I doubt he could shoot off a 30.06 in an area littered with strip malls, a Kroger and Walmart without someone hearing it. It's not like this is a low traffic area.

They are still withholding that information. The only thing I heard was a reporter on channel 4 said it was a 50 caliber weapon. The station then went to break and when the news came back on, they said it was a mistake and the weapon was NOT a 50 caliber. I suspect it is and the news reporter slipped.

TV news showed a picture of a bulet hole in a van this morning. Looked like, possible, small caliber rifle or ,IMO more likely, a 9mm or so handgun round. The hole was torn as much as anything and not round the way one would expect from a high velocity bullet. Even most rifle rounds don't seem to put holes in vehicles with tearing unless from quite a distance and going slowly. I doubt a .22 would do it, and the hole didn't look big enough for a large caliber round like a .45.
