A shelter-in-place has been issued for a wide swath of South Austin, bordered by south Slaughter Lane, east McKinney Falls Parkway, north Ben White Boulevard and west Escarpment Boulevard.
This comes as Austin police are searching for a person who is believed to be responsible for multiple shootings since Saturday.
At least two people have been injured. It is not clear what the motive of the shootings are.
The shootings have taken place in various locations, including at two fire stations, and appear to be random. As of 2:15 p.m., police believe the suspect to be a male in his late teens and driving a white Kia Optima.

Austin had a mass shooting a couple months ago IIRC. Muslim guy shot up a popular burger place down on the strip near the college.
Hmm...bordered by South Slaughter Lane, Mayhem Boulevard, East Carnage Court, and Massacre Highway...

Another weird street name in Austin is “Asylum. Our son was for a while a member of the Asylum Street Spankers. A bunch of weird people who played covers.
When Charles Whitman went on his rampage he was soon pinned down by police and armed citizens firing back, including a professor shooting a deer rifle out of his office window.
My how things have changed in Austin.
They’re everywhere. No need to be on the “lookout”. Where there’s weed, there’s democrats.

I just took a closer look at the picture. Good question.
Ha. My first thought.
Then came to my senses.
It’s the escaped Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the convicted Boston Marathon bombing and police shooter.
HOPE I am kidding.
LOL! I’d buy the album...
Wearing a coat should be a giveaway. 90 degrees.
Shelter in place???
Shouldn’t it be this announcement instead... ‘Get your guns and prep for a shootout’.
Whoever it is, they are already scrubbing all of his social profiles as we speak.

Broadway play and musical movie with Gene Kelly earlier. Had symphonic arrangements.
I just hope it isn’t named after the band “Slaughter”.
KWTX update. TWO suspects on the loose.
