Illinois has pretty tough gun laws, shootings can’t happen there.
Not a good start to work week’s Hump Day... waiting for details.
Can this possibly be true?
I thought they had guns under control there?
“Demographics
As of the census[3] of 2000, there were 354 people, 136 households, and 99 families residing in the village. The population density was 341.8 people per square mile (131.4/km²). There were 147 housing units at an average density of 141.9 per square mile (54.6/km²). The racial makeup of the village was 100.00% White.”
Sad story. More than 1% of their population killed.
TEA Party I’m sure.
I will bet $50 that the shooter did not use an “assault rifle.”
Five dead? Where are the photos of the town on lockdown, and the house to house searches by tactical teams?
The suspect was on the run for about 2 hours this morning. He was caught after a high-speed pursuit. Shots were fired while the suspect was taken into custody. The suspect is being taken to a hospital.
It began at 4:30 a.m. Wednesday morning when police responded to a federal housing complex on East Street in Manchester.
Five people at the complex were killed and one – a six-year-old female child – was injured.
The victim then fled the scene in a Chevy Lumina. Just after 7 a.m. a chase between police and the victim ensued and the lone shooting suspect was taken into custody after shots were fired. Police say the suspect “was in possession of multiple weapons” when he was arrested at 7:27. The suspect was then transported to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.
