Re: Active Shooter Incident' Reported at Tennessee Naval Center
Four soldiers were killed in two attacks on military centers in separate parts of Chattanooga unknown gunmen, leading to lockdowns at local hospitals as well as the Army Recruiting Center on Lee highway as well as the Naval and Marine Reserve Center at the Chattanooga Riverpark, where shots were fired. Four marines were killed and one police officer were shot in the attack, according to multiple sources. One shooter is dead, according to news reports, and police say this is no longer an active shooting situation. Witnesses at both sites reported hearing multiple gunshots in each case. President Obama has been brief on the situation, and multiple law enforcement agencies have responded to the scene, including the FBI. Carolyn Taylor, who works at Binswanger Glass across Amnicola Highway from the incident site, said she heard what sounded like over 100 gunshots. "It was eight, 10 rounds at a time," she said. "Several people were shooting." Taylor said the police arrived and took the employees behind the building and later let them back inside. She said the business was still locked down more than two hours after the shooting and police were bringing food into the employees. At Lee highway, witnesses also reported hearing multiple gunshots. Nicholas Donahue, an employee at Desktop Solutions, said there were two groups of four to eight shots. Another witness said he saw the shooter drive away at high speed after the shooting there. Toscano Italian Grill co-owner Mohamed Elbardissy heard shots and saw the shooter drive away at high speed. "He was driving a silver, convertible Mustang — a white guy," Elbardissy said. "One of the guys, he got shot in his leg," Elbardissy said. "He was trying to join the Navy." Victims were rushed to Erlanger, where police officers put the hospital on lockdown. Shortly after the shooting, there were more than half a dozen police cars with lights flashing, and ambulances arrived one after another. Police officers at Erlanger guarded the door with high powered rifles and ordered the news media across the street. Erlanger CEO tells me the hospital was on lockdown "so that we could actively manage the disaster." Says police "have been fantastic" Bruce Gans, owner of Tri-State Pools at 6220 Perimeter Drive, near Lee Highway where the shooting occurred at the U.S. Naval Recruiting Station, heard at least three gunshots this morning. "We had the back door of the store open when we heard 'Pop, pop, pop,' which sounded liked an AR-15. Within minutes, it seemed, cops were all over the place. We heard rumors that five Marines had been killed. We locked the doors." "I just heard all the shooting," said Fred Wright, a counter salesman at Carquest Auto Parts downhill from the U.S. Army Recruiting Office at 6219 Lee Hwy. Then Wright saw recruiting office personnel come running. "All of them starting running through the brush and the briars," Wright said. "One of them was yelling, 'Call 911, someone's shooting at us.'" "Three of them came in here, and we called 911," Wright said. Bradley Square Mall in Cleveland, which also has a recuiting office, was also locked down. However, though the mall was locked down, police said that there was no shooting in Bradley County. Blue markers littered the ground outside the recruiting station on Lee Highway. Gerald McCormick, Tennessee house majority leader, said he was "deeply saddened to hear of today's horrific events in our hometown of Chattanooga." "My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families. I have been in contact with state and local officials to monitor any developments. I have the utmost confidence in our law enforcement agencies to handle this situation in a swift and professional manner." http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/l...anooga/314944/ |

Re: Active Shooter Incident' Reported at Tennessee Naval Center
Unbelievable, and at a recruiter's office. White, Muslim, Mexican or Russian, what does it matter. Evil comes in many forms. The sad part about all this is that some of you consider this typical. As for the clown saying "police have been fantastic" I don't think the people being blasted would describe anything about their situation as being "fantastic." Like he's describing a waiter at a fucking restaurant. What a cunt. So have they caught this white boy yet? |
