White male in custody.
Wonder if this shooting is a result of this:
Milo Yiannopoulos Encourages Vigilantes to Start ‘Gunning Journalists Down’
Ugh. Disgusting.
The news is reporting that this is a small local paper, that prints stories about community interests. Local school sports, that sort of thing.
I’ve worked at that type of community newspaper, and this doesn’t appear to be a newsroom for that type of paper. I could be wrong, but if they’re just doing small-time community journalism, they’re way over-staffed.
Owned by the Baltimore Sun & located in the state capitol.
Five confirmed dead.
Hey now, let’s be civil here, iiandyiiii.
Hey, it’s way too early to ascribe motive yet. There’s lots of potential reasons this could have happened (I’m serious, with zero sarcasm here. We just don’t know). Would that Sean Hannity were so demurring.
Annapolis PD had an active shooter training at a local school a few days ago. Get ready for cries of “False Flag!”
That list appears to be staff for a number of publications:
This is a directory for Capital Gazette Communications’ staff. Our publications include The Capital®, Maryland Gazette®, Bowie Blade-News®, Crofton-West County Gazette®, Capital Style Magazine® and CapitalGazette.com®.
Again, I could be wrong, but I would guess they’re all housed in the same building, the one that was shot up. Some of them appear to be small community publications, but The Capital is not. Can anyone confirm?
I came here to say the same thing.
Just horrible.
Absolutely agree. We don’t know anything about motive yet. Or, at least, I haven’t heard anything yet.
Just heard on AP Radio News that a suspected explosive device was found.
I didn’t realize how old this paper was.
CNN is reporting that the suspect appeared to have altered his fingerprints.
I don’t think he was calling me disgusting. At least I hope not.
And not carrying id, but that police have used facial recognition to identify him.
