This is a breaking news situation.
A man entered a courtroom in the Fulton County Courthouse this morning and shot a Fulton County Sheriff's deputy, a clerk and a judge; there are reports from both WSB and WAGA, the judge is deceased.
The perp has carjacked multiple vehicles -- now on his third -- and is still at large.
I've just come from downtown Atlanta, and the city is a madhouse.

yeah, she's in "damage control" mode. personally see no need for PR here: what a perp does has no bearing on the image of a city.

This is a stupid question....... but why is the Fire Chief in full firefighting gear at a presser? They pulled him out of a masquerade party and told him to stand there and "look all official-like".

Is this area also a majority of black civilians? Yes.
They should stake out his Mom's house.
Apparently they're trying "several" of his former addresses.

To: beaureguard
Reporter just asked the Police Chief what he (Chief) thought the shooters (paraphrased by me) "state of mind is now" and "what his threat is to the public?". Well, Duh??????
And some newspaper or TV station pays this guy to report a story. jezzzzzzz !!!!!!

"Could he be in another state by now?" He'll get caught sooner or later. Sooner in this case since he killed some members of the ruling elite and so the police will put in an all out effort rather than assigning it to a detective part time as they would if he'd killed a few ordinary tax paying peasants.

Yeah... a "Wanted: Dead or Alive" poster with his mug on it seems to be warranted.

Because Beverly works at the airport now.
To: Dead Corpse
He'll probably get the death penalty and live off of appeals for the next 20 yrs...
To: from occupied ga
At this rate, he'll be caught. 7 years from now off a civilian tip from an America's Most Wanted episode...

He was a first responder to the crime and probably is a hands on guy.
Also, it's good for morale seeing the chief in the trenches.

Hopefully this won't turn into an Eric Rudolph situation where he stays at large in the forest for several years.
To: Dead Corpse
correction... "Wanted: DEAD"
"alive" would give him another chance, would cost a whole lotta money, and he might even be able to get off if he got a goooooooood lawyer.
