6 Dead, Suspect on Loose in Suburban Philadelphia

ENNSBURG, Pa. — Dec 15, 2014, 4:02 PM ET
By SEAN CARLIN and MARYCLAIRE DALE Associated Press

A man killed six people as he weaved across the Philadelphia suburbs in a predawn rampage Monday and then holed up in a house, authorities said.

Bradley William Stone, 35, started at his ex-wife's Harleysville apartment, breaking in through a glass door around 4 a.m., firing multiple rounds and fleeing with their two children, the woman's neighbors said.

He then went to two nearby communities, where he killed five other people and severely wounded another person before holing up in a Pennsburg home, authorities said.

"She would tell anybody who would listen that he was going to kill her, and that she was really afraid for her life," said Evan Weron, a neighbor of Stone's ex-wife, Nicole Stone.

6 dead and the shooter still on the loose and the media is all about the hostages in Auzzie. Not lessening what happened at all. Just saying .....

Fortunately in the southern environs, not where this is happening. As one might imagine, it is a media circus.
