Amen.
It’s odd they think they have him in the cabin and yet they’re searching cars...I guess this is covering all the bases.
There’s only about 2 hours of daylight left.
Oh yes. All cars have to be searched!
Probably a stupid idea, but if he did get away, he probably used misdirection. Might the purported hostages actually be friends, or at least “fans,” who were willing to fire a weapon out of the front of the cabin while he went out another way? I know it’s dumb. I’m just trying to think how you go from “he’s pinned” to “road trip!” There had to be a misdirection of some sort, or else a complete lapse in the attention of every officer watching the place.
