Indeed, by not officially arresting this perp, those bits of information would be easier to obtain.You know ... You're probably right.

Yes, there is.

My guess as to time of shooing is about 9:50, maybe as late as 9:55. It was on the news by 9:57.

Maybe they take turns. One in the truck and one in the astrovan so as to confuse witnesses. Yesterday it was a white guy with sandy hair and tonight an olive skinned guy. Looks like two people who take turns shooting people.

I hope and pray the perp never makes it to jail.

So what do we do now? WMAL is still reporting blockages on roads. Should we not relay those reports? Just what is a "security expert" at a station, anyway? Are they how Clinton got all the media to toe the government line?

I was at that Home Depot just yesterday. I'm not sure if anyone has posted this yet but there is a Micheal's craft store in that same shopping plaza on the other side of HD.

Olive skinned man. That's the first reference to skin color since day one. Where'd that come from?

WMAL reporting the shooting was at 9:30. Anyone in the area half-hour window and call tip-line to report they were in the area even if they don't think they say anything.

Well that's pretty scary. I have thought this whole time the sniper lives in your beltway. you would have to look at many posts to find out why. It's a long story but one that the police in your town have been unwilling to listen to.

If they are cornered and blow themselves up it could be the best of all endings to this crime spree. Except for any cops and bystanders that get blown up by the same explosion.
To: Balata
I disagree. If they're connected to a group (gang, terror cell, whatever) it would be good to have some information about that, dontcha think?

I am CNN deprived.... YIKES! I never thought it would matter.

Home Depot garage is nearly ing the center of that photo. I don't think there's decent tree cover anywhere near the garage. If the shooter is constrained by skill, or whatever, to 100 yards, then it might be possible that he fired from Koons Ford's lot, which would be across Rt. 50 and just West of what the photo shows. Otherwise, the shopping center directly across the street, which, by the way has a Chinese place that makes great Peking Duck, also has a delivery alley. Shooter could easily have fired into the garage from that location, then scooted out East or West on Rt. 50, or travelled through the neighborhood on Patrick Henry Dr. to Columbia Pike. Either way, easy trip to Rt. 7.

All CNN is doing is playing the WJLA DC feed and Aaron brown has WTOP in his earpiece I think.
