I get the feeling they have no idea where this guy is. The police chief said they'll definitely be putting out reward info tomorrow.

[–]Rawrmonger 83ポイント84ポイント  (19子コメント)

They fucking don't. CPD is pretty incompetent, and nothing like this has ever happened here before. There are helicopters flying around my house, and I'm on the opposite end of the city. I just drove over the bridge and back. I saw no cops, no checkpoints...It's a goddamn Peninsula not many ways to get out. This dude is long gone. Unless there were decent cameras in that church he will never be caught.

[–]zeeginganinja 49ポイント50ポイント  (10子コメント)

I was thinking that too. Block the connector, the ravenel, and the 17 bridge and get the coast guard to lookout for boats. Block off everything trying to go north of the strip clubs. Its not too hard of an area to keep in check, especially at night on a Wednesday.

[–]Dildo_Gagginss 28ポイント29ポイント  (9子コメント)

Its probably too late for that now. If checkpoints at those places you mentioned had been set up immediately following the shooting, he may have been caught by now. But for all we know he booked it and could already be as far out as columbia.

[–]TypesHR [スコア非表示]  (4子コメント)

Shouldn't the FBI be involved if it's a state senator killed?

[–]Dildo_Gagginss [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

The FBI is involved because it could be considered a hate crime (the church where the shooting took place was predominately black). It isn't too reassuring though.

[–]Krewmen [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

They'll be involved with something this high profile regardless, whether they have a reason to or not.

[–]suiris 5ポイント6ポイント  (3子コメント)

It's been 5 hours since, he could be on the other side of Charlotte by now if he really booked it.

[–]Krewmen [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Once the pieces start coming together for something this high profile he will be caught or we will at least know who he is. I'm not saying it will happen right away, but we'll find out who he is eventually at least.

[–]Kagawaful [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I am sure he will be caught. 100% so. Unless he was a straight pro, he must have left come clues behind. Or will make a mistake somewhere soon.

[–]Heisencock [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

That's an eerie thought. They have nothing but a vague description of who it could have been. He doesn't have to go very far for very long before he's considered "safe" from being caught.

The fact that it's possible this guy may go back to his day to day life is just.. Jesus it's a weird thought. That being said, I hope he does. I've just never heard of something like this where they could get away this easily.

[–]CupCape [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

What scares me is rioting if the guy doesn't get caught :( It looks really bad if they don't catch a guy that just killed more people than the Boston bombers, but now they are predominantly African-American and the police seems impotent. Especially with the racial climate as it is this might be fuel to an already pretty bright flame :(

Summary of Press Conference with Mayor Joe Riley and Charleston PD Chief Greg Mullins:

  • 9 Dead at Mother Emanuel Baptist
  • More injured, number not revealed
  • Suspect still on the run, call 911 if you have any info on his location
  • Description: White Male in his Early 20s; sandy blonde hair; slender build; clean shaven; wearing timberland style boots, jeans, and a grey hoodie.
  • No confirmation on whether State Senator Rev. Clementa Pinckney
  • Chief Mullins - "This is a hate crime."
  • No discussion about the active investigation, including whether "the photographer" is still in custody. He was released shortly after he was marched in front of the cameras.

Other Relevant Information

  • Prayer Service tomorrow at Noon, location unclear. Rev. Al Sharpton expected to attend.
  • Former FL Governor Jeb Bush has cancelled his planned visit to Charleston tomorrow.
  • Local NBC affiliate confirming State Senator Clementa Pinckney was killed in the church he pastored.
  • Next Press Conference at 3am. Probably won't be up for it, but I expect official confirmation of the State Senator's death at that time.
  • Suspect Description has been updated and made prominent. See the top of this comment and call 911 with any information about the suspect.
  • Bomb threat still active, the media is being moved further up the street from their current location for safety reasons. Maybe not, all the streams seem to be playing replays from a couple of hours ago.
  • No 3am Press Conference, next one will be at 7am. I'll be asleep but will update here when I wake up.

Edits: Added Description of suspect

Reformatted to use for future updates. Not expecting much more news tonight, will update with what I imagine will be a flood of information when I wake up (pretty late) in the morning.

Not going to keep a log of my edits anymore, any new info will be at the bottom of the post, sectioned off as best I can.

[–]jpkx72 [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

That description is so vague. I mean I get that they don't have more but I match that description right now, and I'm sure many do.

[–]the_Synapps [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

It would also describe a good number of males in that area, the church is very close to the College of Charleston.

[–]determania [スコア非表示]  (30子コメント)

If no info is out on the shooter and his motive, why are people trying to label this a hate crime?

[–]dubjah [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

This is only speculation, but 911 dispatchers apparently talked to the suspect when he reported the bombs. Perhaps he said something then, that authorities have not yet shared with the public, that is fueling the "hate crime" talk.

Again, we don't have any info right now, so this is just a thought.

A shooting in South Carolina at a black church and the shooter is a white man?

Sure, hold out judgment, but if I were a betting man...

[–]CustosClavium [スコア非表示]  (12子コメント)

I'm interested to learn the motive. It could have been a hate crime against blacks. It could have been one against Christians. Could have been an assassination of the senator for some reason, maybe over a policy the shooter didn't like. Could be lots of things.

[–]KodiakAnorak [スコア非表示]  (3子コメント)

What were the senator's policies? Is there a local around here who could fill us in? Is this church notable for anything?

[–]the_Synapps [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

The church is notable for its history, but so are most churches in that part of Charleston. The Senator is not that well known outside of his district (I follow state politics and hadn't heard of him before) and is a pretty typical Democrat. The three bills he sponsored this session are all ceremonial (name X road for Y person, etc.). He was campaigning with Hillary today.

[–]hurtsdonut_ [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

Why do you think he is still anywhere near Charleston? What's to say he didn't shoot up the church run and say turn a corner and just start walking, hop in a car and just drive off nonchalantly? I would guess there were many cars driving around right after it happened that didn't get stopped and checked.

Is the fact that he is a senator potentially part of a motive? Don't know anything about him or his views

[–]the_Synapps 11ポイント12ポイント  (4子コメント)

Its possible, though doubtful as he isn't all that well known outside of his district. I follow state politics quite closely and have never heard of him.

[–]shapu 37ポイント38ポイント  (8子コメント)

Possible. Could be race, politics, sex, or random. At this point casting about for ideas is as effective as trying to snatch smoke.

[–]InvalidUsernameAgain 10ポイント11ポイント  (2子コメント)

Well it was the anniversary of the Vesey Revolt and the shooter chose a very famous historically black church. Is it really that wild to speculate race played a part?

[–]Putomod [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

Not at all. There is a massive racial tension in the US right now and a shitload of libertarian klansmen with huge arsenals. But that might be speculation, I'll wait to see who the guy actually turns out to be.

This is very, very important that you guys don't dox people, because MOST of the time (and yes, really, fucking MOST) whenever there's a suspect this early on, it's not them. By spreading the name around you are quite possibly endangering an innocent person.

Also, if the news have a suspect, the cops do too. There is literally zero need to spread their name around, because the cops already know.

[–]nekurashinen 38ポイント39ポイント  (15子コメント)

my guess: he called in bomb threats in locations away from where he is heading to throw off the police and send them covering those areas. a guy like this doesn't call a threat in, he just blows them. he didn't call a threat in before he shot up the church, did he? somewhat clever but also rather predictable.

[–]HighGuy92 10ポイント11ポイント  (2子コメント)

I think you're right. If he's willing to just waltz into a church and murder more than a half-dozen people, he probably wouldn't be so calculated with setting off bombs.

[–]Ladnil 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Calling in threats for purposes of escape is counter productive. The threat is just potential evidence at that point, when really he would want to lay low. The reality is the threats are probably motivated by the same thing that motivates so many of these mass shootings... To draw more attention to himself and spread more terror.

It doesn't matter if it's white on black or black on white killing. It's a fucking human on human killing. Fuck the coward that did this and may those affected be in our thoughts and prayers.

Suspect

  • White male

  • ~21 years of age

  • Sandy-blonde hair

  • Extremely dangerous

Contact police immediately if you see him

You can't get much more vague than that. Are people supposed to call in every young white male with sandy blond hair? That seems both dangerous for people and a waste of resources.

You're supposed to be inside. So if you see someone that fits that description outside at 1-5 am, it may be him.

I got a text from a friend saying, he knows someone in the area and they told him that this shooter sat in the bible study for 30mins before shooting everyone except one person, "so they can tell the story of what happened."

Third hand info, so take it for what's worth.

Not to doubt you, but how would they know? All news is saying he walked in and started shooting

Well, there are survivors according to the police. They'll be talking if they're free to.

There were at least two survivors at the church. A grandmother and her granddaughter, I think.

Charleston was featured on Snapchat not too long ago. Truly a tragedy, such a beautiful town. Thoughts and prayers with the people of Charleston.

Criminals killing civilians is the most cowardly fashion any asshole could have undertaken.

It was at an African Methodist church, had to be some psycho extremist with an agenda.
