Yep, they have shut down Interstate 95, and police again, according to witnesses, are looking for a white van with a ladder rack. Sure hope they get em this time!!! :mad :mad

I hope this white van isn't a 'red herring' as can often be the case. When people get scared, they're liable to see all sorts of things that might or might not be related to these shootings. If everyone is focussed on white vans, the killer may be driving away in his pickup with a canopy or sportute for that matter. I wish they'd finally get this guy. :mad :mad

Ironic.....last weekend, when we were coming back from Charlotte, NC....LATE at night after the Winston Cup races, we stopped in Ashland to get gas at the EXXON. We decided to stop there....south of Fredericksburg, and about 80 miles south of "The District" so we wouldn't have to stop in the "firing zone". Odd...now the "zone" has extended further south.

For those of you not from this general area, Richmond, VA is about 90 miles south of Washington, DC right on Interstate 95. I live near Baltimore, which is about 40 miles north of DC....right "up" I 95 in the other direction. What's to say he won't decide to head north and start shooting up here? Chuck
