(i'm basically just retweeting this la times guy so click that last tweet for info) first it said it looked like he was walking toward police, but now apparently he is barricaded in a house?

Brio2 : "We’ve had 20 years of mass murders, throughout which I have repeatedly told CNN and our other media: If you don’t want to propagate more mass murders, don’t start the stories with sirens blaring, don’t have photographs of the killer, don’t make this 24/7 coverage. Do everything you can not to make the body count the lead story, not to make the killer some kind of anti-hero; do localize this story to the affected community and make it as boring as possible in every other market. Because every time we have intense saturation coverage of a mass murder, we expect to see one or two more within a week."

Bystander Joseph Robert Wilcox, 31, who was carrying a concealed weapon inside the store, spotted Jerad Miller and told a friend he would confront him, according to authorities. As he neared Jerad, he was shot in the ribs by Amanda and later died, McMahill said.
even Fox had to include this bit. maybe keep it handy for the next time the NRA has an opinion about how to prevent mass shootings

Hmm, that HS is only about 15 mi east of my apt.
There was also the Clackamas mall shooting in Dec 2012. That was like 10-15 miles from the high school, too.

At the high school today, two other students just happened to be strapped.
"The confusion that occurred about the number of gunmen at the scene apparently happened because two students were found carrying guns when authorities did a pat-down"

weirdest detail to me of this story is that the first cop killed died 26 years to the day after his father, for whom he was named and who was also a cop, was killed in the line of duty.
