MIT: Shooter On Loose; Officer Down
Atlantic Wire ^ | 18 April 2013

Posted on 04/18/2013 8:22:45 PM PDT by NautiNurse

MIT issued an emergency alert at 10:48 on Thursday night reporting shots fired on the university campus. The school newspaper reports, "Shots fired near 32 Vassar St (Stata Center), police officer down. Please stay inside." That report is backed up by CBS News's Bonney Kapp who reports hearing "officer down" on the police scanner just before the MIT alert went out. For now, details are scarce, but the suspect is on the loose and considered armed and extremely dangerous.

No, WCVB ABC5 live feed showed a callers cell video of shoot out in front of his house. It was hand gun fire and not rifle fire. On the video he hears officers checking weapons and asking if any officers have rifles with them, while shoot out is in progress. Intense uncut video as wife asks “Mike” if this is related to terror incident. They cut off on air video after “Mike” says the F-word.

A lot of conflicting reports, CNN muddying the waters by claiming there’s no federal presence, even though there definitely is.

One suspect in custody. Another on the loose (that they know of). Heavy weaponry, grenades, perhaps automatic weaponry. Explosives being detonated. Bomb threat at a hospital.

This is starting to sound less like OWS bozos and more like Islamic terrorists. Iran is my best guess.

Hope to God it was FA, or the demons will be right back on the gun control frenzy by morning.
