Charleston shooting: Reports of shooting at church

[Drew68]

They got the wrong guy, at first. A local photog. Not sure if that is who you are referring to.

I should make it clear that I'm just posting what the other news outlets are printing.

Of course, it could all turn out to be wrong.

[Husker24]

Exactly.

[Bratch]

FYI, the Pastor of the church is also a state senator.

Senator Clementa C. Pinckney

I saw pics of that guy at the website, and was thinking why would the shooter be carrying all that camera equipment. Glad it wasn’t him.

[VerySadAmerican]

I see lots of posts on here about a coming race war. Could it be this guy had enough and went bonkers? Or could it be a mental “plant” to help start the race war?

Whatever the reason, it was a cowardly act and sure to call some waves.

[PghBaldy]

I understand that, and don’t blame or criticize you. It is a breaking news event, so reporters just talk. I would not even be surprised if this “white” shooter is not.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Absolutely horrible, to go into a house of God and kill people, find the bastard and hang em

[demshateGod]

Probably a white hispanic or a white Arab.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Unconfirmed reports of one dead. Church member at MUSC reports one of their members going into surgery.

[kristinn]

Fellow S.C. legislator Peter McCoy, Jr. says nine killed:

Hearing 9 confirmed deceased from the #chschurchshooting. Absolutely horrific. Devastated for the victims & their families. #prayforchs

[PghBaldy]

Or most likely, a black. Very rarely do whites harm blacks in this country.

[rikkir]

CNN reporting multiple fatalities.
CPD: No suspect in custody, still at large.

[GeronL]

Are they still looking for a white man in a white van

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Kind of. Now reporting a bomb threat at the scene.

[rikkir]

Now being reported that the Marriott near the church being evacuated because of bomb threat.

[cmj328]

Shot on a Wednesday night studying the Bible at church! Like the martyrs of old and today.

Saints of God, come to their aid!
Come to meet them, angels of the Lord!
Receive their souls, and present them to God, the Most High.

[rikkir]

They don’t have a description posted right now

[BeadCounter]

At this point, this looks like the suspect,

“The department said the suspect in the shooting is a clean-shaven white man in his 20s, with a slender build. He was wearing a grey sweatshirt, blue jeans and boots.”

Now dealing with bomb threat. Police broke up impromptu street prayer gathering for safety. Link.

[BenLurkin]

Extremely unusual. I have big doubts about the shooter description.

But I guess we’ll see.
