CNN/NBC Reporters Wonder If Chattanooga Victims Hit By Friendly Fire

By Kyle Drennen, July 22, 2015 NewsBusted

During a live press conference in the 12:00 p.m. ET hour on Wednesday about the Chattanooga shooting, CNN reporter Aaron Cooper asked FBI Special Agent in Charge Ed Reinhold: “There's been reports that there were some personal or privately owned weapons used in responding to the shooter....Did anybody hit anyone else? Was there any friendly fire incident?”

Reinhold explained that beyond the weapons used by shooter Mohammad Abdulazeez, “Two additional weapons were recovered at the scene. Those weapons belonged to service members and they were – at least one of the weapons was discharged at the subject.” Cooper pressed: “Were those officers authorized to have those weapons?” Reinhold replied: “As far as any authorization of weapons, it's not relevant to our current investigation.”

Angry Protesters in Chattanooga: When’s The Government Going To Do Something?

By Greg Jaffe and Thomas Gibbons-Neff J, July 19, 2015 Washington Post

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — Paula Proxmire was surrounded by screaming street preachers, angry protesters and unsettled mourners who had just arrived from Sunday church.

Her son, Petty Officer 2nd Class Randall Smith, 26, had died Saturday from wounds suffered in a shooting rampage here. The attacker was an aimless, depressed 24-year-old Muslim man whose online postings suggest he may have been motivated by radical Islamist movements.

Proxmire stood across from the bullet-riddled Armed Forces Recruiting Center, one of two military sites attacked by the gunman last week. She brushed back a strand of sweat-soaked hair and sobbed. Her son had been dead for barely one day. Around her people were screaming.

Immigration: Man Arrested In Connection With San Francisco Killing Had Been Deported Several Times

By Judson Berger, Jul. 4, 2015, Fox News

The man arrested in connection with the seemingly random killing of a woman who was out for a stroll with her father along the San Francisco waterfront is an illegal immigrant who previously had been deported five times, federal immigration officials say.

Further, Immigration and Customs Enforcement says San Francisco had him in their custody earlier this year but failed to notify ICE when he was released.

"DHS records indicate ICE lodged an immigration detainer on the subject at that time, requesting notification prior to his release so ICE officers could make arrangements to take custody. The detainer was not honored," ICE said in a statement Friday afternoon.

Nine People Shot At Mantua Barbecue 

By Mark Fazlollah, Jun. 21, 2015, Philly.com 

Nine people were shot, including a baby and two children, during a barbecue Saturday night in Philadelphia's Mantua section, police said.

The shotgun blasts left the three juveniles and three of the six male adult victims in stable condition at West Philadelphia hospitals late Saturday night, police said. Two other male victims arrived at Hahnemann University Hospital with minor wounds and were to be released, authorities. The condition of a last victim could not be immediately learned.

The shooting took place about 9:50 p.m. near 41st and Ogden Streets in the 16th District, authorities said.

Detectives said it appeared that the barbecue - involving as many as 50 people - had been fired upon by one shooter, who fired two buckshot blasts from a shotgun. He fired from the street, they said, but may have arrived or left in a car. "There were a lot of people out there," Lt. John Walker, of Southwest Detectives, said Saturday night, saying the toll could have been even higher.
