Looks like the story is still developing..

My prayers to the victims families.
 
I am sitting here waiting on any information. The news hasnt released much so far, This is such a picture postcard town, I cant believe this. People would have been walking the sidewalks today all over downtown..
 
All I have is a black screen tho.
 
the banner just went "blue" on the main page... perhaps it will be up in a sec
 
makes sense.. as the blue banner was up for a sec and now has poofed...
 
We spent a couple of days in Mt. Airy, isn't it the "Mayberry" of "Andy Griffith" fame?

I'm in a different media market, so nothing new to update here. This is so sad ~ it is a nice, quiet town. :(
 
I just checked for any updates and couldn't find anything except what was basically in the initial reports. Was there a news conference? :waitasec:
 
I don't have a link, but I saw on the news this morning that he was arrested in VA. I'll go look now.
