3 hostages which are Pathway Home employees- not the veterans home employees. 3 hostage negotiators on scene, no contact yet. Swat on the way. He has a rifle and exchanged fire with deputies. They are in a room. They know who he is, but no none motivation. He did release some hostages, still has 3. From press conference.

The Associated Press reported the husband of a worker at the veterans home said a gunman quietly came into a going-away party and let some leave, while keeping others hostage.

Larry Kamer told the AP his wife, Devereaux Smith, is a fundraiser for the nonprofit Pathway Home, a program which treats veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars with post-traumatic stress disorder. It was not known whether the suspect was receiving treatment at the facility.

Kamer told the AP his wife was inside the home’s dining hall and was not allowed to leave.

Police radio transmissions described the suspect as a male, 5-foot-6, with a rifle and a scope. At least 15-30 shots were fired at deputies, according to the radio transmission.

A senator told a reporter that the gunman had either been through the ptsd program (severe ptsd program) or was formerly in it. NBC Bay Area. It was supposedly a going away party for one of the employees.

I guess it is a white male republican who is doing the shooting. Well if he is a vet you know he was brainwashed into being a conservative.

Poor guys. That’s all they need.

The guy may have been thrown out of the program, according to the Senator Dodd.
Clinical worker, a program director and and psychiatrist are the hostages. NBC

Old vets and guns dont tend to mix. Especially if they have PSTD.

 

[depotoo]

They’ve not been able to make contact with the gunman or anyone in the room.
