Shots fired at troops training at Camp Shelby, Mississippi
2015-08-05
[Jackson, MS Clarion-Ledger] WDAM reporter Ryan Moore is reporting that Perry County sheriff deputies are questioning a pair of white male suspects who "pulled up from driving another truck" while authorities were at a residence investigating a vehicle matching the description of the truck used in the Camp Shelby shooting.

Tuesday - 2:22 p.m. update

While Camp Shelby soldiers participated in an exercise drill, an unidentified pickup truck passed by and fired shots. Lt. Col. Christian Patterson, director of public affairs at the Mississippi Military Department, said that no one was injured and that the soldiers on site reported the incident to civilian authorities. Patterson said that the incident was not being viewed as an active shooter situation and that increased security measures have been taken recently to protect soldiers. The Perry County Sheriff's office is handling the case.
No indication of skin color in crime reporting generally indicates non-white, but you probably knew that already.
It also could mean nobody got a good look at the miscreants, and so nobody knows.

#4  A few return shots ought to cure this problem.

#3  We lost a troop up at Fort Drum one year. Bear hunters getting a jump on season, shot blindly into troops maneuvering at night. Never found the miscreant.

It may be worth another look soon, Procopius2k

#1  I blame the radical Protestants. They have caused all sorts of violent problems.
