Police Swarm I-270 After Reported Shooting
Posted - October 10, 2002 3:54pm
Rockville, Md. (AP) - Police are swarming over Interstate 270 this afternoon, where there are two incidents, possibly connected.

In the first incident, by Route 28 in Rockville, a woman told police she'd been shot at by a man in a vehicle, possibly a blue Dodge pickup.

Then, further north near Route 124 in Gaithersburg, police have reportedly pulled over a vehicle and taken a man out of the car.

No other details are immediately available.

I hadn't thought about the number of camcorders people have.

You might be onto something if folks give it a little thought and work with neighbors so as to cover a wide area.Kind of,I'll point mine this direction and you point yours' the other.

Thanks Shermy. Every incident in the area is amplified and understandably so.

If this is terrorist work, IMHO we cannot be fixated on the theory that the very same one or two terrorists are going to be out shooting, or that they will stay in the same vehicle or use the same caliber bullets; on the other hand, there are random acts of violence every single day around and in the DC area, so some of these may just be what normally happens but is rarely reported.

Sounds as though the vehicle pulled over is probably the blue pickup truck.

Wife called and said this was clear that this was freeper breaking news and was as accurate as any breaking news on Fox or CNN.

I am sorry. I thought this board was for serious discussion and not for playing the ratings game on who can post the most the fastest regardless of accuracy.

This does not appear to be sniper related in the least.

Be vigilante!
