Pittsburgh here..Listening to the incident on the scanner. Sounds like Snipers are moving into place. They see him but are holding fire.

Not that this is an intelligent perp, but on the off-chance he or one of his friends is...please don’t report police movements. Please.

Woke to hear this news. OMG another shooting. Heard it was in Stanton Heights. I know just where that is, as a former Pittsburger. My ex-son-in law lives there and probably has my grandson this weekend. Going to give him a call.

Prayers for all, hope they have been able to get to those wounded police officers. This is getting crazy anymore. I hope this is not a sign of what to expect this summer.

Good point. But since the TV is reporting everything, I really dont think there are too many deranged gunmen on the FR.
Now, if this was DU, then thats a different story.

While I agree with your sentiments, it is the police that are stupid for using an uncoded frequency in a case like this where the actor may also have a scanner.

Patsies for “The Cause”.

[or maybe the ‘tinfoilers’ are right about the “remote mind control” stuff]

I don’t believe in coincidences.

I fear this is may be a trend. As civilization breaks down, this is going to be the thing. Total disregard for human life and laws.
We may be heading for a very dark place.

Right. And the media are intelligent? Reporterette just mentioning and showing police movements as well as power situation.

Don’t you think the police ordered power to be cut to stop some of the flow of info? This makes me soooo angry that anyone would justify passing info like this during a live event. Perhaps you don’t have anyone you know protecting a city or a country?

This kind of strikes home, for my sister used to be a city police officer in that same area. And I have a friend who is a city Officer who I think might be there.
Pray for the brave men and women who are the thin blue line.

For the media, if it bleeds, it leads. they care more for ratings than lives.

I was just doing that very thing. I hope your friend stays safe. My hats off to your sister for having been a police officer. Takes bravery every minute of every day.

It’s a given.

Seeing anyone posting police/military movements is wrong and dangerous. I would think a FReeper would err on the side of caution.
