Beltway Sniper Shootings-FR Commentary-Wed., Oct. 23,2002
Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences | October 23, 2002 | Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences

Let's keep a live commentary thread going again today. The FBI Tip Line #1-888-324-9800.

All seems quiet since yesterday's news the shooter may target children specifically. It was released on various news outlets the shooter's 3-page letter to police was in broken English and threatened extreme violence. Police announced an electronic transfer of $10m as requested by the shooter was not possible but other options for transfer remain open. No one seriously believes police will actually give the shooter $$, but police are trying to keep a dialogue open with the shooter in an effort to capture this monster.

He is still talking to someone in code?

What on earth is this about?

"We have caught the sniper like a duck in a noose"... "We know this is important to you to hear us say that."

Honey, Moose didn't put this together. Not in this lifetime, ever.

Oh good grief, no - he isn't the sole hero. Or maybe he's not a hero at all. But he's taken some licks and he's taken them well, for the most part.

From Moose @ 11:50pm

FBI Arrest Warrant for John Allen Williams (Mohammed), black male, 6ft tall, 180 lbs. for violation of federal firearms laws.

Asking public to call 911 or tipline if they know anything about him.

Considered armed and dangerous. Do not assume that he is involved in any of the shootings.

TO SNIPER: out inability to talk is a concern for us. You have indicated you want us to do and say certain things. WE want you to know how difficult it has been to understand what you want via notes. Solution remains to establish a 1-800 number for you or to use the PO box. If you are reluctant to contact us, we assure we are ready to talk to you. Our word is our bond. We will address the other things you have asked for. WE have an answer for you about your other option and are waiting for you to contact us.
