There are reports coming up now that the officer is not dead - he's stable after being shot.

CNN live -whoever they were interviewing stated 4 military officers shot and 1 police officer.

ETA: didn't get her name but if it's still the same person, Marilyn H, eyewitness.

I have been waiting over an hour for someone to start this thread!

Guy shot up the Reserve center and shoots an officer...drove to the second scene and shot 4 Military members. From what I gather.

Glad the shooter is down, but I wish so many of them didn't die. So much harder to get to the true reasons.

Loads of conflicting reports about whether shooter is dead or not. I think he/she is, myself...

Yeah the local news is saying he's been "neutralized" and that ABC news is reporting to them that he is dead.

Blood donations are being requested. Centers will stay open until 6pm or until every person seen. Don't go to Erlanger though.
