Here is the lastest...

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Bullets that killed three victims this week outside Kanawha County convenience stores were fired from the same caliber and class of weapon, police said Friday night, but they stopped short of saying they were fired from the same gun.

"All three balls had the same characteristics," Kanawha County Sheriff Dave Tucker said after getting ballistics results from a State Police crime lab. "But we can't say for sure it's the same gun."

Translation: the sniper is using a high velocity rifle which does not leave bullets in a condition which permits ballistic testing.

Well, I can't think of a worse state in which to do something like this. Virtually everyone is armed.

I wouldn't be surprised if the perp ends up being taken out by an ordinary citizen.
