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.

BTW, can someone explain why this perp is being described as "medium complexion? He's BLACK. Well, I'm white, but I'm have a dark complexion and am often described by others just as that....white, with a dark complexion. I've been mistaken as being "black", so that is why people describe me as "white", but "dark complected".
To: King Prout
the description should read: Male, Black, medium complexion, (ht), (wt), (build), etc... PC has no place in this.
That was the description on WSB Radio.

She sounds precious!
Some good news, though, he's lost three pounds on his "Catkins" diet! He's gone from 24 to 21. Good boy!

I think they should make illegal for us to pump our own gas - I've explained to my son, that it is indeed illegal in Alabama. ;-) In some highly unionized jurisdictions, it is illegal for anyone other than an employee of the retailer selling the gas to pump it. Boston for example, or it was last time I was there at least.

OR he could have driven into someone's garage, pulled down the door, and holding the resident hostage. Then leave under cover of darkness, probably on back roads. Helocopters wouldn't spot him then. Nothing is beyond him.
You are correct. The possibilities are infinite, but one thing for sure.
No one is safe anywhere while this monster is on the loose.
Lets pray for the GA LEOs and everyone else involved in the hunt.

Police chief just confirmed that her weapon was taken while she was escorting him alone. The relatives of the deceased are going to sue the county; and win.

You are rude, also possibly an idiot, also certainly unskilled in critical thinking.
here's an elaboration of my initial critical question:
Atlanta is also overrun with illegals... what is "medium complexion" for Latinos?
Atlanta has a large Asian population (Buford Highway comes to mind)... what is "medium complexion" for THEM?
And, as black-heavy as Atlanta assuredly is, there ARE quite a few whites there as well... what is "medium complexion" for them?
see?
the description should read:
Male, Black, medium complexion, (ht), (wt), (build), etc...

No, as a northerner , our police say Black, white, hispanic or asian. There's no need to micro manage racial skin color hues. What is wrong with supplying more information. Every radio report I've heard describes him as a black male of medium complexion.
They don't always mention that he is black on TV but they always post his photo when they are describing him so they just add to it by saying that he has medium complexion.
There are many blacks in Atlanta - why not focus the search on the complexion that actually matters? If they were after a white guy, I would hope that they would state if he had a pale or dark complexion.
