Members boogiebassbill Posted August 10, 2007 Members Posted August 10, 2007 if a joke......it ain't funny
Members baracuda2004 Posted August 10, 2007 Author Members Posted August 10, 2007 my bro is headed to Mass. and he just saw a Helo gunship fly overhead towards Boston with someone leaning out the window mounted on the .50 gun. And fark.com has a story yesterday about the swat teams being out in Burbank making people stay inside for something.. I don't know it could be nothing or it could be something. Personally i'm hoping zombie outbreak... that would be fun.

Members jackcheez Posted August 10, 2007 Members Posted August 10, 2007 And fark.com has a story yesterday about the swat teams being out in Burbank making people stay inside for something.. That was just a bank robbery. They get nervous real fast out that way since the NoHo shootout.

Members ezstep Posted August 11, 2007 Members Posted August 11, 2007 Working late...just got home. Kids report to school Monday. Still, no one knows what started the whole incident. We are hearing all kinds of rumors - people of middle-East descent...drug deal gone bad...all kinds of rumors that are not yet verified. What we do know is this. A police officer was shot. A man passing by stopped, got out of his car, and administered CPR and mouth-to-mouth, but the policeman died regardless. Also, a second policeman was shot and died. Two EMT's who responded to the situation were shot - one female EMT grazed, treated and released, the male EMT shot in the arm and still hospitalized at this time. One suspect dead, one female left earlier, now suspected in a double homicide in Harris County, TX as well as this one. Two suspects in custody. In a town of 12,000, this is devastating. I knew the white officer quite well, as I work with the police and sheriff's departments as part of my daily job. The black officer I knew very well, including teaching his wife, and his two kids are students at the school. I know both of them well. The schools were locked down when it happened since one suspect escaped, and there might be a second suspect who crashed a vehicle earlier and took off running. They don't know if there is a connection or not. This is the stuff you read about in large cities, not in rural areas. No one knows yet why they were in Bastrop in the first place. Right now, there are just too many unanswered questions - not that I am pointing fingers at anyone. No one has yet figured out what started the events and why they were here. Could very well be a drug deal turned sour. No one knows. Keep the families in your prayers tonight. Bastrop is a solemn place to be right now. I just lost two friends.

Members ezstep Posted August 11, 2007 Members Posted August 11, 2007 My daughter from Colorado just called. She heard about it on t.v. But, the reports are not stressing one thing - none of these people live here. None of them (AFAIK) even live in Louisiana. As I said, none of the details have been released yet, but they did release the names of the two officers. But the biggest question is ...why were they here? That is where the drug deal theory comes in.
Members Apendecto Posted August 11, 2007 Members Posted August 11, 2007 I'm really sorry to hear that. That is really awful... Yo.
