Beltway Sniper Shootings-FR Commentary-Wed., Oct. 23,2002
Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences | October 23, 2002 | Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences

Posted on 10/23/2002 2:39:33 AM PDT by Peach

Let's keep a live commentary thread going again today. The FBI Tip Line #1-888-324-9800.

All seems quiet since yesterday's news the shooter may target children specifically. It was released on various news outlets the shooter's 3-page letter to police was in broken English and threatened extreme violence. Police announced an electronic transfer of $10m as requested by the shooter was not possible but other options for transfer remain open. No one seriously believes police will actually give the shooter $$, but police are trying to keep a dialogue open with the shooter in an effort to capture this monster.

The news copters are there now. Fox's Brian Wilson just said the last time the box truck was seen was southbound on Clopper Rd. They're still looking for it. Not much info now.

I've been a freeper for more than 4 years - many of the "old freepers" don't post too much anymore, if at all. Many of the, shall we say, "new freepers" have flamed me MANY times - and I don't usually post all that often anymore.

I have enjoyed reading your posts VERY MUCH. Glad to have you on board!!

BTW, I'm only privy to information of something someone saw.
I know no one in high places, at all, believe me.

Although my daughter is a good friend of a famous baseball player, does that count?

On MSNBC they showed police has a white truck pulled over in a field. Station went to something else, but will come back to story.

Oh--do tell!! I mean about the famous baseball player. LOL

My brother spent the night with George Clooney once - back when they were in the 2nd grade - along with several other Cub Scouts.

That's about my extent of knowing anyone famous. LOL :))

Greetings from Maryland,

I was just north of the beltway when WTOP broke in about the gun shot on/near I-270. I'm catching up on the thread now. What do you think it is?
