I checked every single post. There were posts about an active shooter, but this had new information that there were two dead. If I am wrong, show me the post.

There’s nothing wrong with posting an updated news story with more information and putting it under extended news

FNC now says 1 shooter dead, a second in custody. Threat is neutralized.

And just like the other posts, half of it’s probably inaccurate.

Cops and politicians in aftermath....

How many more of these patting themselves on the back press conferences do we have to accept? Just shut up and get on the TV, publicity hounds.

Anything we want to know is met with “we cannot discuss on ongoing case at this time” “we cannot comment on that” and “we know the identities but we are not going to release that at this time.”

The suspected shooters were teenagers, and the people they shot were adult men, law enforcement officials said.

The suspects, believed to be 17 and 19, appeared to have died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds, San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl said.

One of the victims is a mosque security guard who played a “pivotal” role in preventing more bloodshed, he said.

Wahl said authorities are still investigating a possible motive but are considering the shooting a hate crime “until it’s not.”
