    Are you defending ISIS's honour. Are you upset that he could suspect ISIS of carrying out a mass shooting. Very strange position to take.

    Some people feel unfulfilled if they have to go a day without accusing someone on the internet of racism.

    God, that was insane hearing the gunshots live through the police scanner. Suspect down in west alley, not conscious.

    Jumping to the conclusion of ISIS probably isn't the smartest but to claim that blaming a shooting on ISIS is racist is just absurd. ISIS are a recognised terrorist organisation, not a race,.

    Where religious slogans being shouted reported ? Nope. Bit of a jump to immediately goto ISIL in American with I dunno mass shooting normally going on.

    Race? Racism?

    One down inside car, one down outside car, one on the run.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 848 ✭✭✭Superhorse


    That's an unreal scene. Suspect blown to pieces on the path there. SUV shot to bits.

    Image grabbed from ABC news helicopter shows SUV shot to bits. Bodies can be seen inside and outside the car. (NSFW/graphic) http://imgur.com/IfeTljQ

    Officer down from ricochet in standoff.

    Edit: you can't see the body outside, my mistake. Is off screen.

    Police scanner confirmed one detained.

    Police scanner reporting 1 running.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,900 ✭✭✭InTheTrees


    Only in LA...

    We're sitting here stuck to the tv... crazy stuff happening.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,833 ✭✭✭✭ThisRegard


    It's not LA.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,196 ✭✭✭PressRun


    I'm glad at least one of them has been detained. I kinda hate it when they go out in a blaze of glory in a shoot-out with the cops.

    Image shows gun by the car (no body).

    In summary so far:

    One suspect dead inside of car
    One suspect dead outside of car
    One suspect being pursed on foot
    One suspect detained.

    Once more, for those arriving just now and don't want to go through all the pages, Reddit Live thread here and police scanner here.

    Reddit reporting that suspect on the run wasn't involved.

    Turn over to CNN, CNBC coverage very poor, that anchorman is woeful.

    Reported 14 dead 17 injured at a county building.
    Massive police response to area near a church.
    Military vehicles probably SWAT on scene.
    SUV shot up, body in street with long gun, still very much unfolding in suburb

    Get the waterboard machine set up.

    Pipe bomb located. Suspect vehicle still at large, according to police scanner. One subject in vehicle.

    May have misheard police scanner. Reddit clarifying that there might be a suspect in the backseat of the SUV still breathing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,380 ✭✭✭STB.


    Fox 10 Live (helicopter only has 25 minutes of fuel left!! The "journo" is asking did anyone else get their footage)

    Probably as close as Galway is to Dublin.

    Edit: I take that back - seems to be 58 miles away.

    There might be still one suspect at large. Hard to tell from police scanner.

    Call for Ballistic Shield team to San Bernardino address. This might be where the pipebomb is located.

    Needed........getting interesting.

    This is why the whole "Let's take back the spare ex-military armored vehicles from the police" thing that's been going on recently is stupid. People keep asking "Why does this town or that town need an armored vehicle? It's not New York or LA". The problem is that these things don't just happen in New York or LA, as this incident shows.

    Reports of more shooting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,433 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    They all want to ride on the big bomby saver


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,900 ✭✭✭InTheTrees


    They've brought in a cool mobile Shield on a bulldozer to check out the SUV.

    They're saying theres a wounded suspect with a gun inside.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 848 ✭✭✭Superhorse


    "Onlookers" according to CNN have to be moved back. WTF. A lunatic could be on the loose with an AK47 and there are people standing around onlooking. Idiots.

    50 miles apparently.

    Very active situation,
    If the think there is bomb in vehicle, then they don't seem to be too worried, EOD vehicle approaching, car either end of SUV.
    If someone still alive in SUV then police are not showing any sign of it.

    Shots reported near "Amazon". Might refer to the Amazon warehouse there. Reddit says an Amazon fulfillment centre.

    Image showing cops closing in on SUV. http://imgur.com/VNixS8k

    They're advising people to the rear of a church where there's someone in clothes matching the suspect. To a shed.

    Scanner just mentioned a suspicious person has been seen in a car in a white mask.

    User messaging contributors to Reddit thread:

    "hey man, I am in the amazon building at 1910 E central and our employees in the parking lot heard the gunshots and ran inside. We are just on the other side of the wash of the SUV and it aligned with the times of that, but no shots at amazon itself"

    Curious tweet...sounds less like IS and more like...angry white men perhaps. Who knows.

    Calif shooting: Fed law enf. official says they believe one man angrily left meeting; returned with “one or two” others; started shooting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,900 ✭✭✭InTheTrees


    Bomb Guys are using some kind of hook to probe into the SUV.

    There was a shooting down the street from me when I was in New York. I was supposed to meet up with someone and had to pass the scene on the way, and you wouldn't believe the amount of people crowding around with camera phones, with the police having to tell them time and again to stay back. Eejits.

    Some kind of professional hit perhaps?

    I would have guessed at domestic terrorism, tbh. Just doesn't seem like an IS situation at all.

    Possibly, drug gang maybe?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,900 ✭✭✭InTheTrees


    They just pulled a body (looked like a body) out of the SUV. Using the mobile shield and a hook.

    Have ISIS ever been part of a terrorist attack in the US?

    Most of the time it's white gun owner or their child doing the shooting, more than likely its the same thing.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Hispanic male, shaved head, orange shirt, camo pants. Police are trying to apprehend on East Briar Dr.

    Guess what. Not ISIS.

    They may be removing second body. Very unclear what they are doing, with vehicle or other body, reporters saying same.

    One reporter said it is is an area with a lot of problems, gang trouble. City recently bankrupt..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,066 ✭✭✭✭Happyman42


    Amazing kit to be just available. How often would they need a shield like that?

    If ISIS do hit the mainland america it will be a big hit. But they may not bother, as the Americans seem to be doing a pretty good job themselves.

    Don't think they have, no. It seems like Europe is the focus of IS fury at the moment, rather than the US. It has seemed like domestic terrorism is more of an issue for the Americans.

    100% not ISIS related i'd say. We'd have heard by now from one of the survivors if they shouting alans snack bar or by their appearance.
