I don't know but I'm taking an educated guess and I think it is one shooter. Nothing to see here, move along. I hope I'm correct.

Initial reports are often not what they seem to be. Hope they hold a presser soon.

CNN, Fox and MSNBC have left this story.

Well some are going to be disappointed(idisarthur and others) on this thread since the perp is not hispanic.

Remember the media trumpeting about the DC snipers being white?

NBC4 in DC got Bababooey'ed by a guy who described himself as an eyewitness. He had them going for about 30 seconds.

Fairfax Police Detective Killed, 2 Others Shot
Tuesday, May 9, 2006; 7:06 PM

One Fairfax County police detective has been killed and at least other officers have been shot at the Sully District police station after a gunman stormed the building from some nearby woods, police sources said. A civilian police dispatcher also was wounded.

The gunman was killed in the shootout with police, the sources said. Although in early reports police said two gunmen were involved in the shooting, shortly after 6 p.m. officials said they had not been able to confirm that a second person was involved.(snip)

I was out that way today doing some contract work. Saw a lot of emergency vehicles, and didn't know why at the time.

Bad scene.

Oh that's just sick.
Not when people have been shot and killed.
Wishing tapeworms on the Bababooey-er.

Actually that was Chief Moose. But it was amazing how fast some were so sure it was a hispanic gang and when found it was a messed up white guy goth, the "air" went out out of this thread.

All of us are wondering about the motive. Maybe a terrorist attack like jocon suggests. Perhaps a revenge attack for someone in a gang who was shot or arrested.

Or someone wants some high profile hostages while they demand for a certain terrorist ringleader's release.

I seem to recall that about 10 or so years ago a goth guy tripping on LSD grabbed the gun of a FX county officer and shot him.

I'm watching channel nine in DC (CBS) on this. They say they police are supposed to make a statement at 7:30 pm EDT
