Re: Active Shooter In College Station 8/13

My deepest sympathy for the friends and family of the fallen police officer.

This location has a timeline of the events.

When I read this, it was very upsetting.

"Witnesses also told police that the suspect approached Constable Bachmann, after shooting him and removed his duty weapon from his gun belt."

However I was not aware of this below and it obviously shows the respect College Station shows for its police.

"During this same time period a civilian in the 600 block of Highlands fired 5-6 rounds from a small caliber handgun towards the suspect."

"12:14 PM – First officers arrive on scene and approach from Maryem Street. They immediately come under fire from the suspect."

Re: Active Shooter In College Station 8/13

This was from a Click2.com news article.

This is the step father of the shooter talking to a reporter.

"We are devastated for the families that he killed," said Weaver. "He was a ticking time bomb."

Arnold asked Weaver if he had any indication that something like this was coming.

"He was crazy as hell," Weaver said. "At one point, we were afraid that he was going to come up here and do something to his mother and me."

"We were hoping he'd kill himself before doing something like this," said Weaver. "We are just devastated for the families this guy killed."

If you look at his photos, he doesn't pass the "deer in the headlights" eye test. However he was 35 years old, not under 25 as the other schizophrenics have been.

Very sad, my sincere condolences to the families of the victims.
