State police have confirmed there has been a shooting at the Pennsylvania State Police Blooming Grove barracks in Pike County. There is no one in custody at this time.

Interesting.

I’m waiting for MSNBC to break in reporting that militia tea partiers are on a rampage. Kinda like they’ve done for everything else. It was tea partiers who bombed Pearl Harbor—didn’t you know?

I’m in Pike County and this police barracks is about 15 miles from my house.

“PA Crime Stoppers is offering a $20,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in this case.”

“Our crews have watched more than 100 police vehicles race up Route 402 towards the Blooming Grove barracks just off Interstate 84.”

“a massive manhunt is under way, with police from Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey involved in the search.”

“Newswatch 16 was also there as numerous medical helicopters were seen taking off in the area.
SWAT team vehicles also arrived in the Blooming Grove area just before 1 a.m. Saturday.”

So this is what it’s like when law enforcement actually
take their job seriously. This is definitely not revenue
related. This would be on par with your typical NY/Detroit/Chicago/LA drive by. Whats the deal? Why so many resources?

State police said they do not have anyone in custody for what police are calling an ambush shooting.
Officials also said the troopers were not shot at a close range.
...
State police said more than 100 law enforcement officials from New York, New Jersey and here in Pennsylvania have searched the Blooming Grove area for a suspect or suspects and, so far, nothing.
“We are convinced that this individual is no longer in that immediate area,” said Lt. Colonel George Bivens.
Officials believe this was a targeted attack but urge people in Pike County to be alert.

From the scant info released, it appears there were 2 shooting scenes. Police were shot at for 45 minutes, first at the barracks, then at the extraction site where the air ambulance helicopters were brought in.

20 to 30 rounds fired, but no mention if some of that was return fire. Sounds like an organized attack, not a random driveby.

Why all the secrecy? If they want the public’s help, the public needs to know a little about what is happening.
