USA Today – by Amber DowningAUSTIN, Texas — A gunman targeted three downtown public buildings — the Mexican consulate, federal courthouse and police headquarters — before police shot and killed him, according to local media reports.
Police said the unidentified man was suspected of opening fire on buildings at around 2:30 a.m. local time.
The Austin American-Statesman reported that the Mexican consulate and federal courthouse were among the target locations, as well as the police building.
Assistant Chief Raul Munguia told reporters that the suspected shooter, who was wearing a vest, was killed near his vehicle, which may have contained an improvised explosive device. The police bomb squad was on the scene.
Police say the male suspect died early Friday in what authorities call an officer-involved shooting.
Officers were also investigating an address in North Austin where the suspect lived. They said they are checking the residence for any other potential bombs.

I hope everyone is having a happy Thanksgiving holiday.
By the way, this story sounds like BS to me.
Plus, they forgot to put the mention the assault weapon and hundreds of rounds of ammunition…to fire 3 shots?
They did get the “vest” mention in there. I guess he was well dressed?
Oh, and they got a mention of the possible “car bomb”. Probably a road flare and an empty gas can.
Lots of flashing police car lights in the night shot.
More people standing around doing nothing, like the Ferguson Farse.
Well it’s from USA Today, so of course it’s BS, and it’s really a matter of determining what percentage of BS the story contains. (A BS “rating”, if you will)
People are beginning to snap, and everyone’s pissed at Obama and his wetback friends, so it’s possible this guy just decided that he was going to do something, even if no one else was.
And they didn’t say how many shots were fired. They said he had three targets, so we’re going to have to comb a few different sources to get a better idea of what happened. Right now the guy’s a hero in my book, but as is usually the case, we have no idea of what actually happened if all we have are Zionist-owned sources of info.
Good target rich areas but who just shoots at a wall?
I read the headline and thought “yay I have a new hero of the day”
but now Im not so sure.
Perhaps he should have made spikes and just put them all over the ground around the building.
“Police said the unidentified man was suspected of opening fire on buildings at around 2:30 a.m. local time.”
So, not only is he “unidentified”, but also is MERELY “suspected of opening fire on buildings”?
O.K., I just saw another article that says he fired over 100 rounds at buildings. Still unidentified.
5150.
