This is the first time in my life I've felt so unsafe. It's truly horrifying. here's the story Some area schools will be closed tomorrow just to be safe because he's still on the run and wanted to commit "mass murder" along with targeting law enforcement. I am so so glad I have off tomorrow and will be home with my daughter. I am not religious but I am saying a prayer that they find this sick POS tonight. I really hope he ate his own gun. Sick bastard.

I had a thought earlier of people experiencing war, that they must feel this (and more) unsafe constantly and I cannot even begin to imagine living in such constant fear. It is heartbreaking and terrifying. Please pray for this area tonight if you would...

[edit]How did I even manage to double post? I could have sworn I only hit the button once.. oops!

They buried the trooper yesterday (9/18) in Scranton, PA, which is where I am. It was touching and heartbreaking at the same time to see so many state police officers (from all over, not just PA). The only noise for most of the morning was the sound of the police vehicles driving by and the helicopters flying overhead. It felt like everything else just stopped.

I hope that they catch the bastard soon. I'm a little farther away than you, but still have the sick feeling in the pit of my stomach.

I do hope you and your family have been able to stay safe! My thoughts are with you, and everyone else from the area.

, I never would have thought is find someone so near me on Subeta! I'm in Narrowsburg (right over the bridge from Honesdale). nnMy mom was watching the live coverage on TV. I couldn't watch it. Too sad. :(nnI had high hopes they'd find him overnight, now with the FBI so heavily involved. But no luck. Schools are still closed or on lockdown.

I'd be terrified to leave my house if I was that close..

I too thought they would have caught him over night. I saw that they had a lead and had roads blocked off as they were looking. His face is everywhere. It won't be long.

Seems like they think again tonight they are narrowing in on him. I've got WBRE and WNEP's pages up and I keep refreshing to see if anything's changed. Wish I had a scanner. A lot of people on their FB pages saying there's a empty house (either in Pike or Barrett township) with a door kicked in an the silent motion detector alarm in the livingroom went off and that's what prompted this. They're telling people there to stay in their houses away from windows. So scary. Praying this is it.

edit: 9:30pm

Video on CNN right now... They think they have him surrounded in that house!

"Police have surrounded a home where they believe Eric Matthew Frein is believed to be hiding, a local government official told CNN. The home, which was broken into, is not far from Frein's family home in Canadensis, Pennsylvania, in the Poconos Mountains. Police exchanged gunfire in the area with an individual believed to be Frein. State police asked residents in the Price and Barrett townships of Monroe County to stay inside their homes due to the police activity. The public was asked to stay away from windows and not to travel to the area."

I been keeping up on the Internet all night. I'm surprised nothing new has been reported in a few hours. I really hope they did get him tonight. We'll all be able to sleep a little better when this whole ordeal is over.
