Any updates on the Atlanta Shooter?
I'm away from a TV right now but I wonder with all the alerts across the entire Southeastern US, if this guy has been caught yet?

Any updates?

2. Here's a link to live streaming...
http://www.11alive.com/video/default_live.aspx?storyid=60153

The best part is the banner ad at the top. They've been streaming this story non-stop since it first broke. As far as I can tell, they've been repeating the same information for the last 5 hours. 3 dead, 1 wounded, some schools on lockdown, killer still at large.

3. Just spoke to my dad
and asked him about it, from what he says this guy is swapping cars so sounds like authorities don't know what he's in anymore.

5. Look at this
According to court workers, Nichols had previously tried to sneak weapons into the courthouse while being transported there from the Fulton County jail.

Taken from: http://www.wxia.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=60152

Does this make any sense? So this guy who, according to the same article, had quite a past, was not shackled and was only escorted by one female deputy? Even if he didn't have a history of violence (which it seems he did) he was heading to court on a very violent charge.

6. Apparently, there's more than one way to get rid of an activist judge.
Hope he gets rehabilitated on the spot by several police officers.

7. Here in Atlanta on business...
... The town is very concerned. The local media has not broken away from the story since it happened and news helicopters are all following police cruisers everywhere they go...

When this first happened I thought I was back home in California!!!

10. If he hides out with the anthrax killer
He's home free.

Okay, snark and sarcasm off.

This is a horrible event, and I hope this guy is apprehended swiftly before he hurts anyone else.

Snark and sarcasm back on.
