No I didn't. Probably doesn't matter, I'm sure it was the sniper.

[Flyer]

I may have missed it somewhere, but whatever became of the freshly repainted box truck that was towed away from the bridge?

[Dog]

Moose just said that was a matter of National Security...

[tomkat]

could it be different guns.......but the same ammo

absolutely

[conservativejunkie]

Go Home!

Manger?: I'll repeat that information that we've received from one witness about the van is not reliable. Information from the press is not reliable.

[Letitring]

Moose has put everybody in such an adversarial position. If he'd spend MORE time hunting the sniper, less time worrying about HIS image, what the press are saying, and what is going on with the internet, we'd all be better off. My .02 cents.:)

[Lil'freeper]

Press: I guess I understand your frustration with the media. But I don't understand what happened with the witness that misled you? Charges?

Moose: I apologize, we've been focused on other crimes. Investigators will decide what to do with that individual later. We're not ignoring your question, its just at a different level. We're preoccupied with something else.

Press: Do you have any credible eyewitness of the shooter?

Moose: We will not talk about the investigation.

ME: WELL, THEN WHAT IS THE POINT OF THESE USELESS PRESS CONFERENCES???

[stlnative]

Yes your right... I am also sure he it him in all 11 cases (even 12th with the 1 shot into the Michaels store where no one was hurt)

[Dog]

Listen up all DC/MD/VA freepers after this performance today of the LE's.....you all need to be extra careful ....our sniper will answer them today..

Stay safe everyone....stay safe.

Within a couple of hours of the discovery, Fox News reported that it had been determined to have nothing to do with the case. It was also pointed out that the windows of the truck found and the one sought in the BOLO had significantly different windows in the front (shape and position).

[hispanarepublicana]

You have FReepmail. Could the friend in the FReepmail be olive-skinned?

For all FReepers, can rifles/guns be custom-made so that no one would know the exact "model?"

[stlnative]

Repost...

Yes your right... I am also sure it is him in all 11 cases (even 12th with the 1 shot into the Michaels store where no one was hurt) (sorry typing too fast)

[Letitring]

No, they do not, probably will never (at least at this rate) have any suspect in custody. I am certain when we have that many LEO's in ANY one area, alot of things are getting looked at. It's the nature of the beast. As far as Moose and his press tantrums go, it is tiresome. He seems to have called Chief Manger on the carpet and put a muzzle on him. Just my take on things. Disgusting, as I don't think Mr. MOOSE could find a freight train if he was tied to the track. :) (that is a little something I picked up on FR. Can't remember who said it).

[Flyer]

Thanks. I missed that when it was reported.

[mhking]

ME: WELL, THEN WHAT IS THE POINT OF THESE USELESS PRESS CONFERENCES???

I wondered how long it would take to ask that question. Of course, no one on the ground there has the stones to ask the same question...

[Sacajaweau]

We're not going to talk about the investigation. That's a matter of National Security.

I'd say that is the last time we hear from Moose.

Talk about bloopers!!!

PRETTY DARN
