Shooting at the courthouse

Lot of cops surrounding the place.

More pics.

Anyone know if it's inside or out where it happened?  Obviously I'm little concerned being married to a police officer, luckily mine is safe at home, but haven't been able to get ahold of anyone that would be there yet.

Outside. My wife works in the courthouse and said it was outside.

KJRH is reporting 3 people injured. My wife says she thinks the gunman was shot in the head or chest but she thinks he was still alive when they carted him away.

That's terrible.

This will become fairly normal news as people who have bad tempers and/or mental issues pack side arms. They need to add another layer of metal detectors out to the perimeter of the property and put up fencing. Nothing is sacred anymore.

TW reports a deputy shot in the hand.

Sauer?  You at the library today?

Channel 6 Has some pretty gnarley pics of the guy laying on the ground bleeding.

It's difficult to feel sorry for someone who starts shooting people.  Was this a case of Police assisted suicide?

The guy that took those pics from the library is saying the gunman only shot in the air, and sat down.  TCSO isnt saying where the rounds that injured the deputy's hand and the bystander came from.

NPR local said the bystander was injured by a deputy.

I find it's a good idea to be as empathetic as possible.  If not for this guy, for his family or any friends that he might have.  It's never a good thing when something like this happens.

It seems that he was either trying to commit suicide by cop or trying to go (back?) to jail.
