The scene of the shooting is in the area of the Neuse River Greenway Trail near Osprey Cove and Bay Harbor drives, police said.

"Residents in that area are advised to remain in their homes," the Raleigh Police Department tweeted.

Hope this doesn't turn into anything worse.  Any of you in that area, stay safe.

15 year old
In critical condition in hospital, unclear if he shot himself or by someone else.
Shot his brother then went around the neighborhood shooting people including an off duty police officer.
And, surprise, Biden calling for an assault weapon ban

PICTURED: Baby-faced' Raleigh gunman, 15, who shot his older brother dead and then went on neighborhood rampage killing three women, an off-duty cop and his neighbor's dog with assault rifle

The bigger question is why did he kill his brother and then go on a shooting spree.

Everyone is so quick to jump on the gun control bus and overlook the real issue.

Those who are often the most vocal for gun control usually don't like where looking at the real issues often leads.

Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

One witness says shotgun

Quote
'I saw him basically pass my house in the backyard. He had a long-barrel shotgun. He was dressed in camo. He had a full backpack on that was also camouflage.'

I'd bet a months pay that the kid was/is on some kind of ADD/ADHD meds.

Yep shotgun

Didn't stop the usual suspects to immediately call for an "assault" weapon ban and I even saw one report that stated they saw a car riddled with bullets from an assault gun.

But shotgun
