The Gazette Shooting..Breaking..

Sheriff just stated that this was an"Targeted attack on the Capital Gazette " A single white male..

Will update.. The guy is in custody... Now searching his home.

"Smoke Grenades " " and a long gun."

It's kind of obvious.... but.. all is not known..

perhaps the Gazette printed some type of a negative story concerning the gunman. I Doubt it..

he was a crazy on-line stalker of a woman he went to high school with who barely knew him. Found guilty. Paper wrote a story about it. He sued paper for defamation. He lost. He continued to be crazy. And he could get guns even though he was crazy.

edited to add explanation of who he stalked.
