Police in Lafayette, Louisiana, say they responded Thursday night to a report of a shooting at the Grand 16 Theatre.

"We think the shooter is deceased," Police Chief Jim Craft said, according to CNN affiliate KATC. "Right now we're in the middle of sorting this out."

The shooting involved "multiple victims," the police department tweeted. Police said they received the call about 7:30 p.m. CT.

Todd Moffatt, manager of a Mellow Mushroom pizza restaurant in the area, said 20 to 30 emergency vehicles had arrived on the scene. The area was locked down, he said.

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal tweeted, "I'm on my way to Lafayette right now. Please say a prayer for the victims at Grand Theatre and their families."

a tweet from an ambulance company says 8 people taken to local hospitals.

of course they don't deserve it, the same way any civilian killed in an ongoing conflict doesn't deserve it. and yet, perhaps at a certain point we as individuals need to recognize the need for collective action so innocents don't keep dying at the whims of the mentally unstable??

quote:

City Marshal Brian Pope has confirmed for The Daily Advertiser that six people were injured in a shooting Thursday night at the Grand Theatre.

The shooter then turned the gun on himself, Pope said, and is dead.

Katie Domingue of Carencro was at the 7 p.m. showing of "Train Wreck" with her fiance', Joshua Doggett. About 20 minutes into the movie, Domingue said, she heard a loud noise.

"We heard a loud pop we thought was a firecracker," she said.

She saw "an older white man" standing up and shooting down, not in her direction.

"He wasn't saying anything. I didn't hear anybody screaming either," Domingue said.

She heard about six shots, then she and Doggett ran to the nearest exit, leaving behind her shoes and purse.

it was a judd apatow movie

Obscure to all except those well-versed in Yuuzhan Vong lore.
Is it too much to hope for that the shooter was loving incompetent and only managed to kill himself? Because if we can get out of this with just several wounded I think we can consider this a good night for America.

Last headline I saw was just 6 wounded. gently caress. Well at least one of the two was the gunman.

Can't wait for the NRA to comment, think they'll wait until morning or put out something tonight?
