We had a local man-hunt here last night after a man fired 3 shots at police, missing. They didn’t catch the guy and they were roaming backyards looking for a weapon or anything the guy might have discarded.
But they basically stopped every car and looked behind and under every house last night. The chopper wasn’t using a spotlight, it must have been using infra-red.
They say the guy is relatively normal when he isn’t on drugs, if he turns himself in today I might buy it, somewhat.
announce the cops won’t be paid overtime for the search and they’ll nab him faster.
They are hunting a man who is also hunting men....that makes a big difference
Where’s “here”?? (just in general, no specific).
You a PA resident?
Be on our side ,I think not, They'll on the side that pays their salary , The governments side whether it the good or the bad side .
“They’ll keep it up as long as the government keeps paying for it.”

Of course, it’s the taxpayers that are footing the bill for this manhunt.
Mincio Donciev
Tracking The `Mountain Man’ — Expert Uses Footprints, Broken Twigs, Other Clues To Find Suspected Burglar
Donciev, 68, had eluded capture for much of the past decade, though authorities knew much about him:
He was a former policeman and convicted murderer from Bulgaria who had a criminal record here. They believe he tried to burn down the Seattle house of a former girlfriend in 1985, and then disappeared.

I’m surprised the dogs haven’t found him.
He probably dug tunnels long before he shot the cop, enabling his eluding the police.
Did not Bill Ayers with the weather underground do the same thing and never spend a day in jail, hired as a college professor, write a book for the president, and freely walks the country?
Here's the pic from the article:
Apparently , all the kool equipment isn't helping. They still suck at their jobs.
these pa troopers ain’t very bright anyway,i got stopped on pa.pike had new mexico dl.cop told me they did not reconize sl’s from forgin countries.
I’m looking at that picture thinking what one or two armed people with suppressed .22s would do. If an MRAP is idling near by, you’d never know what was happening until it was too late. PAGING HENRY BOWMAN!
The difference now is the thanks the militia would get would be the government still trying to take their weapons.
Digging a hillbilly out of the woods is not ever going to be easy - Especially if he knows the folks thereabouts. I don't think that most folks can grasp how big wilderness is. I don't know about back east, or deciduous forest, but I know here, in the Rockies, and even as decrepit as I am these days, I have every confidence that I could walk off and disappear... If I had to.
As for FLIR, and other tech, mostly that is not useful until you know you have his immediate vicinity. Dogs would do better, though dogs have a hard time on rock and water, so again, they depend upon fairly recent sign.
IF he is still up in there (which I doubt), unless he was previously prepared, what will drive him out is winter. But if it were me, I'd have been where they ain't looking a looong time ago.
This is one man. I wonder if anyone in authority is thinking, what if 10,000,000 gun owners went Frein?
Winters in Pa. are usually not that drastic. Unless a polar vortex comes down from Canada and parks its butt for a few weeks...Thank God for Al Gore...
