It appears that the shooter is shooting from a house with automatic weapons.
Double Face Palm
Edited to add, if you have 5.0 Radio Brazos EMS this is going to be a big deal. Lots of folks shot. At least one reported dead on scene.

Wow, looks like a bad situation.
Hope the cops pull through, and I'm glad they managed to arrest this guy instead of him getting the easy way out through suicide. I hope he rots in jail.
If this had happened next week, it would have been really chaotic. Move in week always has insane traffic, tons of out of town folks, etc.....the only positive is this happened after Summer Graduation and before Fall semester. One of the quietest times in town.

You can listen to the scanner here. Sounds like they are in scene containment now. Although as of right now I'm hearing calls for medics and police trying to get injured out.

If I am not mistaken, one of our senior members is a LEO in college station. My prayers to him and his LEO brothers and sisters!!

If you're referring to GigAg, I
believe he works for another agency in the area.
I'm sure he knows the guys involved though and may have been part of the response, so I hope he's doing okay.

Is this somebody's personal scanner being piped to the Internet? I've never used this site before.

Yes, that is him, thank you. I have never met him obviously, but was concerned for him as soon as I heard this story breaking. Again, prayers go ou to everyone involved here!

None of the news is saying it but this may have been mutiple LEO's out to serve a warrant at some shady apartments in that area. Apparently the guy went nuts on them.
