Filling air time....maybe LE asked them not to report anything "current" while the manhunt is happening?

Just a guess.

Probably FEMA.

Governors call National Guard.

I shall tell you -- before the last three weeks I could think bullets are firecrackers --no more, I would know gunshots in an instant now

So, the Indian origin lady reporter from the WAFB Alert Center was recently reporting an incident from this morning where witnesses saw two people dressed in all black go into a Walmart in west Baton Rouge, and come out dressed in new colorful clothes (my description), get in a car and drive off. I think FBI are looking for them.

I wonder how long we are going to accept this violence. I suppose it will be the sane as other shootings. Gun sale go up.

Someone walking with open carry causes no eyebrows to go up until the bullets start flying. Everyone armed all of the time.Special

I can't help but think of a conversation with some crazy folks years ago that thought they needed to be as armed as the police/government...just in case.
Be careful what you wish for. IMO
My thoughts are with the family of those killed and injured today.

Reporter at Goodwood and Airline. Police vehicles 'flying' to the scene.

Press conference may be coming up momentarily with Baton Rouge Police Chief (maybe).

Three police officers have been killed after at least six were shot by a masked gunman in Baton Rouge - less than two weeks after the killing of Alton Sterling in the same Louisiana city.

The man, who was wearing black, was seen firing indiscriminately at around 9am as he walked out between a shop and a car wash, a witness told WBRZ.

A pastor on WAFB just said this isn't a white issue or a black issue or a blue issue. It's a heart issue.

A bit simplistic, but there's a lot of truth in that.

I guess a storm is literally upon Baton Rouge with lightning storm overhead. It has been interesting to watch the sky get progressively darker.

My understanding yes and now the major manhunt is on.

People are requesting prayer and come together.

Weather is likely going to be a factor, radar is showing storms.

Gray Nissan being hauled off which were the 2 men
appeared to be driving that was seen at Walmart with Texas license plates

On live feed all you see is flashing blue lights 😭😭

Thank you

#PrayforBatonRouge and the fallen officers who protect us daily 🎗

Sad to hear that. I'm sure the medical team was working so hard today (as they always do) to help this officer survive.

Very draining on everyone.

O/T
The silver/gray Nissan ring a bell with Texas plates????? OMG Did anyone catch the year/make?

The good part of that is Walmart is notorious for their excellent surveillance systems. If this was related, then it is highly likely they have some good footage of the perps.
