samy316 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 http://news.yahoo.com/shooting-erupts-church-charleston-south-carolina-021744448.html This situation is still ongoing, and there are reports now that there might be a possible bomb at the location. The suspect has been described as a "slender white male", and this church is a historically black church. Oh boy, things are going to get much worse from here on out. Update: A South Carolina representative reported that as many as 9 people are dead, with more unaccounted for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsmarydu Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 He's apparently still on the loose. He's got a "bowl" looking hair cut, left the scene in a black late model sedan, looks like a Dodge from the front end to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slateman Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 So the reason they don't have him in custody is because first responders found what appeared to be an IED. As a result, the police called everyone back to deal with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan T. Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Yeah, cnn not really covering this at the moment, other than a 30 second brief. They were wall-to-wall with it earlier this morning, but it was clear after 5 minutes or so there was nothing new to report, and they didn't have any visually interesting video of the scene to show. They had two newspaper reporters on camera who happened to be in town for a political rally, and they were simply repeating information already reported. I'm sure as more information comes out, they'll be on top of it. This is a red meat story for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattFancy Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 curious why you edited out the call out on MSNBC, but left the fox news one there. Just because Fox would be still talking about something that happened, what 3 years ago now? At least MSNBC is talking about something relevant, though Trump is a clown.

Kosher Ham Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I've seen some people saying the guy was wearing a wig based on the pictures...I don't think so. It gives him leeway to cut his hair. Wearing a shirt under his shirt...I do that all the time, not unusual. Although a long sleeve shirt right now down there...it's about 100 degrees. Speculating, does he have tattoos that he doesn't want to be seen ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
