FAIRFAX -- Shots have been fired at a police station in the Chantilly area.

Fairfax County police spokeswoman Mary Ann Jennings says several people have been hurt. She says authorities don't know how many or whether any officers were injured.

"We had a shooting situation, we're trying to figure out what happened, why it happened," Jennings said.

Police are reportedly still seeking a suspect

my question is is this another ROP attack

My first thought, too. Awfully bold regardless.

If the cops are on lock down, what are the rest of us supposed to do?

Glad I'm toting.

This type of attack is pretty common south of the border as well. I read about 5 cops being shot at a resturaunt in Neuvo Laredo yesterday.

That's right. I initially said it sounds like Iraq, but it also sounds like our good friends the Mexicans (and everybody in South America).

But it does not sound like Virginia.

"White Ford Explorer, VA License plate JPK 8892 "

The white truck has been ditched... look for any vehicle driving erratic or with suspicious occupants.

There's a national park very close by, the Manassas Battlefield National Park. Fairfax police must have called on all nearby police units to help out.
