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

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.

I want to go grab some chow but don't dare step away from the TV or computer! Perhaps breaking news is the best kind of diet.

Can anyone report what was said about VA road blocks? I did hear that they have been moved off I95 to another area.

Shepard also referred to the scene of the last shooting as Falls Church, Maryland.

For those not familiar, Falls Church was the scene of the previous shooting in VIRGINIA. Aspen Hill was the location of the bus driver shooting in MARYLAND.

These guys are tripping all over themselves tonight.

Peach, whitcomb said what he meant was we would be stunned at the level of police work performed. Then he backtracked on almost everything he said, said he didn't want to give a wrong impression of what was going on.

If there was a threat against the President, there's no way he'd be going tomorrow.

Another site to search.

The President will be there tomorrow, though.
