Were actively taking sniper fire as we speak, the spokesperson said. Were taking rapid fire out there.
The official reported that gunfire might be coming from multiple directions. The suspect or suspects are not believed to be inside a structure but are instead blending in with their surroundings. The number of assailants remains unknown.
Officials believe the suspects are using high-powered, modern sporting rifles and believe the fire was intentionally set to lure firefighters to the area..............

Guns need to be limited and regulated. If I were in charge they'd all be taken away.
And if you think it's just fine that anyone and everyone can have all the guns they want, then don't complain about the gun deaths.
