Holy Cow, That Active Shooting Was Just A Couple Hundred Yards Away

I don’t want to give up where I live, but, it’s damned close. Many of the helicopter shots showed my home (I really need to powerwash the parking space)

I heard about it from a coworker who was near my area, was going to hit some golf balls. Said cops were streaming into my area. This was around 530pm. I soon learned it was an active shooter. There’s a greenway that runs along the Neuse River very close to me. I left early, kinda took a back way to get in line. Sat there for a while, they started letting cars in, but, was blocked to my area. Finally turned around and got dinner (BTW, El Tapatio off New Bern is awesome. I’ve surprisingly never been there).

Started heading home around 915, took a while, cut down two “back roads”, as a coworker who lives down the street tried. Got kinda close, had to park up the street and walk down. Slowly. In the middle of the road. Officer allowed me to walk home, finally around 10. Waited outside to talk briefly to an officer, as they were going door to door. Nothing I could tell him. There are 8 police cars on my little section of road, and more around the corner. My heart is pounding. Not sure how they deal with all those flashing lights.

He was apprehended a few miles away, apparently having used the greenway and then going through the woods, then to some roads (possibly, still very woody there), before being captured off of McConnell Oliver Dr.

Yeah, that’s the main road that leads to the back part. Just that one road.

Not sure how accurate, redrum has been saying all sorts of stuff, could be correct, could be BS, such as the shooter leaking brain matter and coding. The kicker? The kid is apparently 15.

And, of course, the politics are coming in, with the normal nuts out and about. Sad.
