It could. I think and hope that he’ll find himself outgunned later today.Fun and cheap guns to shoot if done with proper respect. As you stated, they can be lethal.
I was raised in the country and had my first 410 at 12 but I had a wait a couple of years before I could hunt with a .22 by myself.
I am glad to have been raised to respect and not fear guns.
Back to the topic, the .22 could be used to obtain other resources.
Just my thoughts.

Exactly! I wouldn't scoff at him that it's a varmit gun.With that rifle he can have my car. He doesnt have to shot it.

I'll add it to my road-trip itinerary! I am always surprised what I learn on WS and on this thread it's been places to visit, lol.
Back to the case. I agree with the post above that the perp is enjoying this. He knows he's good at this.

Having family and friends in LE, I would say that they have a unique job that requires discipline and bravery.LE among a few others have the worst job ever, moo.
Thank you to all LE for their service.
It's his last hurrah and he knows it.I'll add it to my road-trip itinerary! I am always surprised what I learn on WS and on this thread it's been places to visit, lol.

I agree. Seems like he hides during the day and moves at night. I hope the dogs find him, but worry he's in a tree with the gun, ready to shoot whoever spots him.Anyone think they’ll actually get him today? I feel like he’s found a good hiding spot and won’t make any moves til tonight… or tomorrow night. I can’t believe the dogs haven’t found him yet if he is indeed on foot, especially since they now have his recently worn clothing.
Pondering possibilities in this recent sighting location....Hiding or moving underground maybe, stole gun on Coventryville Rd., ran to French Creek Elem, access UG through manhole covers, hiding/moving in storm drainage structures, LE most likely already checked these out with bloodhounds. We send cameras through these on our construction projects, as builts on the school will give LE the routing to tie ins with main lines. AMOOThe ABC 6 Live Helicopter footage of the terrain and the number of LE, some with horses, inside the perimeter is extremely interesting,
They are many LE up along the powerline easement that runs alongside the French Creek Elementary School. It runs diagonally in a SW-NE direction and is where the land was previously cleared of trees to install all the power lines and pylons. It could be an easier route for him to transit the area. There are numerous homes and farms in this area and the news copter flyover clearly shows LE on foot and on horseback guarding these places and watching out at numerous sites.
#TodayIsTheDayAnyone think they’ll actually get him today? I feel like he’s found a good hiding spot and won’t make any moves til tonight… or tomorrow night. I can’t believe the dogs haven’t found him yet if he is indeed on foot, especially since they now have his recently worn clothing.
