We are learning so much about motive tonight! Sounds like grudges from his own academic past/failures.

"It was because of the evidence provided to us by neighbors..." --Mayor Smiley Damn, that Redditor really IS the hero!

<modsnip> EDIT: Other sources now confirming: SUSPECT FOUND DEAD. https://www.wcvb.com/nowcast https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/12/18/us/brown-shooting-suspect/b79ad4eb-b810-52e9-a67f-f5060004ad5f

The helicopters are really focused in on this area! Like dozens and dozens of circles over the past hour by 2 - 4 different helis at various times, which also periodically leave the area to presumably refuel at towns in MA and then come back. At least one of them was at the previous mutli-heli...

One of those same news helis that was circling near Brockton flew directly up to an area just across the state line into NH along I-93 near the Mall at Rockingham Park where it circled for sometime. It's now landed in Lawrence, MA (refueling?).

I'm on pins and needles to know if it was the gray Nissan with FL plates spotted behaving suspiciously in front of the Rhode Island Historical Society by the Reddit commenter!

All three of them, including the one registered to Mass State Police are circling in the Brockton area. The other two may be rentals (US Helicopter Inc and Helicopter Inc).

On FlightAware, there are like 3 helicopters tracing a certain section of Mass Route 24 on the way to Providence. One had been circling that area and another of the 3 was circling in Boston earlier. A 4th helicopter appears to be headed that way from Boston.

What about Sandy Hook? Reverse order, he killed his mom first and then went to the school? Maybe more of a domestic than an assassination. Psychologically, it does seem that this shooter would be more likely to have a hit list of assassinations or do a multiple location mass shooting. Maybe...

All police could really do is ask the witness to keep certain information quiet for the good of the investigation. The redditor isn't under a gag order or anything. And it may be they (LE) don't care, since this person's description may jog other locals' memories, generating more useful tips.

Everything about how this case has been handled has been weird if you ask me. Anyway, sounds like major developments are coming down the pike. Hope it sticks this time. Buckle up, sleuths!

I don't think it does. I thought the same thing at first, but when I zoomed in to see if it said "LL Bean" or whatever it looks like an editing slider left on there by the FBI digitially zooming and enhancing the image. My eyes ain't what they used to be even with reading glasses, but I think it...

All of the witnesses who have spoken to the media--including the TA who "locked eyes" with the shooter--have stated that it was unintelligible. Whether that means it was a nonverbal scream or roar of rage or whether the shooter intended to articulate words but was muffled by the mask or...

Link to press conference going on now:

"I see a puppy in his coat!" Just kidding. But seriously, could these videos be any blurrier?
