Update on shooter incident. Responding agencies continue to investigate the situation. The scene is outside of Building 32 (Stata) and 76 (Koch) near Vassar and Main Streets. Injuries have been reported. The situation is still very active and we ask everyone to stay inside.

Wow, multiple injuries..
 
Who would freaking put that pressure cooker outside days after the boston incident. sick
 
April has a bad rep

•  April 19, 1993: The FBI ends a 51-day siege of the Waco, Texas, compound of a religious group thought to be stockpiling guns with an assault that triggers a fire. Eighty people died that day.
•  April 19, 1995: Timothy McVeigh bombs the Murrah Federal Building Oklahoma City, killing 168 people. McVeigh chose the anniversary of Waco for his attack.
•  April 20, 1999: Two students go on a shooting rampage, killing 12 of fellow students and one teacher before taking their own lives at Columbine High School in Colorado.
•  April 16, 2007: A mentally unstable student at Virginia Tech kills 32 students on a campus-wide rampage.
Throw in the start of both the Civil War and the Revolutionary War, and the assassinations of Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King Jr. and April has a lot to answer for.
The timing of the Boston bombings has drawn the interest of the FBI. Earlier this week, when the head of the FBI’s Boston office asked for tips from the public to identify the marathon bomber, he included the attack’s date as a possible clue.
"We are asking anyone who may have heard someone speak about the marathon, or the date of April 15, in any way that indicated that he or she may have targeted this event to call us," said Richard DesLauriers.
 
Man, I'm sure if I can handle hearing anymore bad news, this week has been crazy. That World Star video is interesting tho....

Click the police scanner link in post 191 - listen to that police scanner. This is insane....
 
Different news places are reporting 1 suspect as dead, and another reporting that same suspect as in custody.

If he was on the receiving end of that gunshot vid... I would presume he's dead.
