Is there any concrete evidence which links the ransom demand with the shooter?

Just flipping through the channels. CNN is tied into WTTG, which is the local FOX station. At the same time WTTG is in commercial. Go Figure.

Here's what peach posted: Overnight news: The New York Post reports the shooter's 3 page letter left at the Ponderosa demands money in exchange for stopping the shootings. The shooting of schoolchildren is mentioned. A CNN report claims the shooter used voice-altering machine in yesterday's call to police.

ROCKVILLE, Md. (AP) _ A person was shot in Montgomery County early Tuesday, but authorities said it was too early to tell if it was connected to the sniper who has killed nine people and injured three this month.

The shooting occurred near the site of five other sniper attacks.

Seems weird if it's just a money thing . . . Why wouldn't the police say, "Sure!" and then nab him when he tried to make the pick up? It's the best way to catch him.

Shooting in Aspen Hill Reported
Updated: Tuesday, Oct. 22, 2002 - 6:38 AM

 

(Rockville-AP) -- A spokesman for the Montgomery County Fire Department confirms one person has been shot in the Aspen Hill area.

Spokesman Pete Piringer says units were dispatched shortly before 6 a.m. to the intersection of Connecticut Avenue and Grand Pre Road for a reported shooting on a Ride-On bus.

Piringer says one adult male victim suffered a "priority one chest wound." A medevac helicopter will be taking the victim to a local trauma center.

Piringer says he's been asked by police not to disclose which hospital.

He says it is his impression that the victim was found on the bus.

This is in the Aspen Hill area of the county.

There is a huge police presence in the area and traffic is affected.

Traffic is completely stopped at Connecticut Avenue in both directions around the scene.

There is no word if the reported shooting has any connection to the sniper shootings in the Washington region.

The shooting occurred around 6 a.m. near the site of five other sniper attacks.

"...hope they catch the son of a gun dead."

While this would be just fine and dandy fer me, I'd prefer to catch him alive, find out what he knows, then kill him!!
