    The shooter is dead? Did someone just say this on live TV? Who?

    Source pleaaaase.

    Only bystander I’ve heard about being hit is Wolf interviewing a guy who says he saw a General with a gunshot wound to the head.

        Well fuck. Yep, CNN is now saying the shooter is dead.

        Guy was actually dumb enough to do it from inside the crowd, and he got murdered by them.

        What a shitshow.

        EDIT: Shooter is dead, but was not in the crowd. Was on a building’s roof outside the event and got obliterated by counter sniper fire.

        He was reported to have been shot in the head, thus the so-far lack of images showing what may be quite a mutilated head.
