As of 3:15 p.m., police still would not confirm if the suspect shot at police or was armed at all.

When I drove by, it looked more like this: Cop at intersection said that the unruly crowd heard via Twitter that the victim was 12-years old (no skittles mentioned).....Victim was the cop that had to shoot a 30 yo on parole in a stolen vehicle.

...Janet Napolitano’s timing is interesting here. Perhaps she’ll try and rile up the kids as OBAMA’S COMMANDER OF CALIF UNIVERSITIES.

Sucks for him.
