Update on the shooting

Turns out the guy had no business being among the general populace. He had a history of shooting at neighbors and deputies, and was actually insane.

Latest from the hometown paper.

My mom told me that the high school is flying the flag at half-mast. As it should be.

Funeral services are reportedly going to be held at my home church on Friday. I wish I could be there.

The story has made its way into national news, I noticed today. All over my LA-specific news page.

*hugs*

*hugs* Thanks, hon.

Yes, it made national news shortly after it happened. This morning I found it on a UK news site.

I can't help but think that Suzanne would be quite surprised that her death made national news, let alone international news.

I saw it on the Today Show this morning, but had no idea it went international.

Yep, it's international. I can't read the site, but the ".no" suffix indicates it's Norway:

I also found it on the UK's Telegraph website yesterday.
