Searching for a lone gunman

[browardchad]

Steven Emerson was just on MSNBC. According to his description, there are two guards stationed at each entrance, at the machines. If the perp runs, there's no extra guard past the screening station, to block or pursue.

[Darlin']

Brian Wison is saying that it appears to be over... says his information is that the two suspects are in custody.

[dakine]

Do you know that there are I-495s that goes around cities?

[mhking]

TOY GUN...heard on police radio

[browardchad]

Supposedly with a toy gun. Found them on fifth floor.

[per loin]

So they were only armed and inside the building for an hour and a half before they were located?

[TomGuy]

Swat Team taking this very seriously.

FoxNews commentator speculates whether this (perps testing security) was some type of a dry-run.

[Mo1]

I heard .. with a Toy Gun

Why would anyone risk going to jail

Except to try and embarass the Home land security department???

[Cooter]

I-35 and I-20, must be DFW. Don't forget I-35E, I-35W, I-820, I-635, ...

[camle]

There's an I-495 in MASS that connects I-270 (which begins life as I-395) with I-95 just south of the ME border.

I really dont wanna know anymore x95's!!! please

[oceanview]

its a total joke. I travel over various NYC bridges and tunnels every day. there is no security, just a single car with a flashing light that sits there at the "checkpoint".

[Ichneumon]

Live on MSNBC - looking for a 5' 3" 130 lb man brown haired with suspected 38 caliber gun, avoided security in chase, is believed loose in bldg.
