Let's keep a live commentary thread going again today. The FBI Tip Line #1-888-324-9800.

All seems quiet since yesterday's news the shooter may target children specifically. It was released on various news outlets the shooter's 3-page letter to police was in broken English and threatened extreme violence. Police announced an electronic transfer of $10m as requested by the shooter was not possible but other options for transfer remain open. No one seriously believes police will actually give the shooter $$, but police are trying to keep a dialogue open with the shooter in an effort to capture this monster.

That is one damn big truck to be a get-a-way vehicle. Hell who knows with all the twists and turns this thing has taken.

On MSNBC they showed police has a white truck pulled over in a field. Station went to something else, but will come back to story.

Truck was off in an open field, surronded by tall trees. I don't know, this looks like something.

[Catspaw]

Yes, it's over.

It's very hard to type on a desktop when one is sitting under one's desk--and I'm in Green Bay.

Fox is reporting that the money should be deposited in a credit card account

It's those late charges and overlimit fees. $10M will just get it in under the limit for this month...

[Freedom2specul8]

Hey, no double entendre intended. :)

[Catspaw]

Moose will speak to the sniper? Sounds like the sniper contacted them late yesterday or today.

[KSCITYBOY]

Wolf Blitzer said he did not think that was what the conference was about. Blitzer did not know.

I think you've been great! I look for your posts for the information when I'm gone!

[MasonGal]

Oops - sorry -I tend to get off topic sometimes. In these very serious, somber days - I thought a little laugh or lighter topic would help. I shouldn't have been going off topic on this thread.

My apologies.

[KSCITYBOY]

I better say I was just kidding before I get killed!!!
