And early reports said 14 fatalities, not just the one in the video.
Look like he pulled the tweet. They're still looking for the killer.
Thanks...Twitter is going nuts over this right now..hard to keep up.
Maybe not the best time for humor.
But that made me laff!
There’s an active manhunt for a random shooter in a major American city, and that’s somehow not fit for breaking news?
Care to explain just what the heck is going on?
>>WHY WAS ORIGINAL THREAD PULLED???
No kidding. Who the heck is modding that stuff, and why? This aspect of FR is vexing at times.
Here’s a non-mainstream link to a site that has a good aggregation of info. It may have been the source of the earlier thread I glanced at, I’m not sure.
Thank you for fixing. Hope this guy is caught fast so we can pay for his luxuries for the rest of our lives (as he’ll likely outlive us if caught alive.)
Never mind that it was two of their own who were slain.
At least two threads on this story have been pulled. I don’t know why.
Welcome! If this doesn’t rate as breaking news, nothing would. I join you in hoping they catch this bastard ASAP.
This chicken shit killed an old man in cold blood for no reason......
Here is link to story about two people shot in Lynn, Mass. Shooter still at large.

And right on cue, college friends of his are “shocked” and describe him as “a funny guy, always laughing and joking.”

Yeah, just chatting away on the phone while live streaming, just chillin’ while driving and killing people.
I’m sure that CNN won’t be airing any of that video. Especially since he hands out his phone number over the live stream.
Nothing new really to report. He hasn't turned himself in yet, so the mayor says schools will stay closed tomorrow unless he does.
Doesn't seem as anyone's actually looking for him... they don't seem to want to hurt Stevie.
That simply means someone didn’t want this posted. Too much brutal reality I’d guess.
Thanks.
Thanks for the update.
