Michigan State Police say Scott Woodring is dead. Woodring is accused in the shooting death of Michigan State Trooper Kevin Marshall.

Police say Woodring was found early Sunday morning in a car at Maple Island Road and 60th Street in Dayton Township on the Newaygo County line. Police say Woodring got out of the car when police approached and pointed an assault rifle at police. That's when police shot and killed Woodring.

The standoff between police and Woodring began last Sunday. That's when police tried to serve Woodring a warrant at his Dayton Township home on charges of accosting children for immoral purposes. During the standoff on Monday, police say Woodring shot and killed Trooper Marshall. On Tuesday after a police fired a percussion round, Woodring's home burned to the ground.

The wide variety of good that can be accomplished using amateur radio is no secret. Both my parents were licensed hams, and used their radios for everything from helping to coordinate SAR efforts for a military helicopter that crashed in a storm here in N. Central Texas years ago to Mom reminding Dad to pick up milk and bread on the way home from work.

Its no great surprise that the looneytunes have picked up on AR as a way to communicate - you can get 2-meter transceivers cheaply almost anywhere. I'll bet you a rubber dolly that none of them have a license to use said equipment though - that would be "a mark of the beast."
