No major drug busts that I can find recently either.
Wait and see what gets reported now.

Obligatory media question from presser that is live NOW, ‘we’ve heard rumors that White Supremacists are involved’.

Of the five, there are men and women.

Louisiana 'ambush' kills 2 deputies, wounds 2

Since all of the deputies are/were white who are they claiming the White Supremacists were? The gunmen or the deputies?

I assumed the gunmen. Started as a traffic stop. Another media talking head asked about “the rumor” that one or more of the gunmen worked at the plant and were “disgruntled”. I think that the msm starts the rumormongering.

interesting unrelated but read on NOLA site (i believe) that this town, Laplace, had a “boil water” order due to a ruptured supply pipeline. This order was lifted at approx 11 this morning.

Thanks for the link. My system must not be compatible in some manner as I can't get any videos to play...not even the one of time-elapsed video of the afternoon storm.

That's some heavy rain.

I would wait on posting anything until something firm comes out on names.

"...a source within local law enforcement confirmed..."
isn't reporting. No given, named source? I wouldn't post it.

Well post the link then. You've done it in mail so do it on the boards.
You found it and you deserve notice and recognition for following up on the story.

Thank you for keeping me up to date.

I can’t post from what I have to use (article posting), plus it’s a Gannett site. It’s called the Shreveport Times (on web). The story is awful and strange.

Kyle Joekel is from Beatrice, Nebraska.

The Beatrice, Nebraska newspaper has this article on him (as being a suspect in the Louisiana shooting):

Police identify Joekel as alleged shooter

Another article from the Beatrice newspaper on this person (Kyle Joekel):

Article describes what he was wanted for in Beatrice, Nebraska, and his flight from that area.
