Hanover County Shooting [Ashland, Virginia- North of Richmond]

[William McKinley]

Just reported. Took place outside of a Ponderosa Steakhouse. Not sure if it is related or not at this time. Police have shut down parts of I-95.

[Consort]

The sniper is definitely not a baseball fan. He seems to kill everytime there is a post seasen game.

Now saying looking for "leased chevy 2000 white van with Maryland plates."

[livius]

Of course not. Why the apology?

[cactusSharp]

yeah that, and it's double tough too

[Ligeia]

Do you know if it's possible to take back roads from Ashland to I-64?

[Shaka]

The sumbitch is sitting at home watching the coverage right now...and probably taking off his turban to relax. Gosh damnit...can't someone see anything??? Gun shot goes off...LOOK IN THAT FREAKING DIRECTION AS YOU ARE GOING TO YOUR KNEES!!!!!

Just heard on WTOP, this shooter victum WILL SURVIVE.

Maybe this is a message. 12 shootings, 9 dead. Maybe something big is going to happen on December 9th. </SARCASM>

My response about local "goodolboys" was "lost".
Two GOBs on local TV telling about the tape they took of an incident across from the resturant.

Tape shows police arresting driver of white van and handcuffing occupant. Policeman is holding a rifle.
Why is this not being shone on CNN? CNN is acting they haven't a clue.

[Catspaw]

I figured peritonitis--and probably a colostomy. Poor guy.

[College Repub]

How would they (or the public) know that it's leased just by spotting it?

[rintense]

And hasn't shot on Sunday- which means he's a football fan.

Law enforcement are stopping and handcuffing all drivers in white vans that fit a description in the current Washington area sniper attacks.

And they are all going to be very RICH, RICH, RICH very soon!

Because Homeland Security is going to be, in effect, a purging of the CIA and FBI.

But this started in Maryland...

Patrick Henry's famous speech was made in St. John's Church.. still an active church.. in the old area of Richmond. They are still 25 miles away from there.

Local news reporting through CNN - witnesses being separated and interviewed right now. If you are in the area, you can'get out due to traffic stopped in all directions. Patient will make it through - alert and conscious before surgery - hit in stomach.

The sumbitch is sitting at home watching the coverage right now...and probably taking off his turban to relax

And laughing his ass off....

[P8riot]

2 witnesses - one in gas station across the street and one was just walking into the Ponderosa. Neither saw the shooting.

How can they be witnesses if they didn't see anything?

States will often have different license plate numbers for leased vehicles.
