Skilled bomb teams pulled up various ‘shield’ vehicles to James Holmes apartment and through a window, threaded in cameras on long booms to skry the interior of the apartment. The Chief of police held an immediate news conference just now, and you can see he is fraying a bit in aggravation toward the aggressive news media. He said that he was only going to speak about very dangerous conditions in the apartment and that it appears to be so deeply boobytrapped and with sophistication, that it may take hours, days or weeks to disassemble the rigged explosives.
The press of course tried to keep asking questions and he reprimanded them sharply and said ‘this was a courtesy press vonference’ and that he was done now and would call another press conference later. The Chief is one of those old fashioned law enforcement guys with his gold leaves on the shiny black brim of his hat, said hat jammed down low on his head. A big man, and one who is on a mission, you can tell, as is good and righteous.
James Holmes apartment building has been evac’d and also five surrounding buildings have been evac’d. This adds malignant intent on top of slaughter and hoping to kill a group of police officers and fire fighters by leading them on when they arrested him by saying oh yes, I also have more guns and chemicals at my apartment. For there are many many families in the evac area, and it is a low income area, and this lack of a home will be a hardship for many, especially if the Chief is right about dismantling the danger taking weeks and months.
