That's right.
There was a shooting in Austin late.
I guess it was early Sunday morning where a man who had he had a T-shirt and he had apparently items in his vehicle that have police now believing that perhaps his motivation for opening fire on a crowd of party goers could have been terrorism related.
Yeah, and just after midnight, you know, everybody was loose and ready to party and having fun.
And certainly, what was going on in Iran or any concerns about someone exacting revenge...
was the last thing on anyone's mind there.
This was on West 6th Street, as you mentioned, near Buford's Bar.
And this suspect was certainly targeting this crowd.
He circled the block several times, and he actually began by just opening the window of his car and shooting with a pistol at a crowd and then got out eventually with his rifle to do even more harm.
I know.
Honestly, that just flows right out because we were so used to saying it for so long, the war with Iraq.
How many times did we say that as anchors and news anchors in our markets?
That is just beyond frightening.
And then he eventually did, yes, drive to a nearby parking lot.
And then he got out with a rifle.
There is a photo out there circulating that police have out of him with his rifle.
And he's a large dude.
He gets out and starts shooting at people walking down the street.
Thankfully, he was walking in the direction where there already was a
police stationed just to make sure everything, you know, you've got certainly some bar issues, you've got some folks.
