Phoenix Interstate 10 is still on the loose; civilian group composed of army vets, ex cops, and boun

[EmperorScorpious]

[quote]The civilians -- armed with guns, knives, mace and other weapons -- call themselves "Bolt Force."

Their mission: Helping authorities solve a rash of shootings along a busy stretch of Interstate 10 in downtown Phoenix and elsewhere in the Arizona capital.

They are a stealthy bunch, all dressed in black. They claim 17 members, including men and women of different races. They can be spotted stalking above highway overpasses and patrolling nooks and alleyways around Interstate 10.

The founder goes by one name, Bolt, for security reasons, he says. He jokingly calls the group "guardian angels on steroids."

[B]Authorities believe some of the shootings may be the work of copycats. Two additional shootings along roadways elsewhere in the capital late Thursday morning could be someone trying to emulate the earlier shootings. On Friday, police were looking at another report of shots fired, this time on I-17, reported CNN affiliate KNXV.

A man was being questioned in connection with the spate of shootings Friday, according to the Arizona Department of Public Safety. He was arrested on a charge of marijuana possession, but has not been charged in the shootings, the department said.

"He is not our prime suspect," DPS spokesman Bart Graves told CNN on Saturday.

[B]"We've been getting a lot of tips and a lot of leads," he said. "It's fair to say some of those resulted in us locating and talking to him. It is our hope that one lead leads to another."[/B]

The latest incidents are being investigated as separate shootings.

[B]Graves said some incidents involved the firing of bullets, and pellets were used in other. He described one shooting as a road-rage incident.

"We frankly don't know if this is the result of one person or not," he said.[/B]

Arizona state troopers spokesman Tim Case has acknowledged at least 11 confirmed shootings in and around I-10 in less than two weeks, not including what he called "numerous reports this morning of other vehicles with damage."

This doesn't sound like it's going to end well...

[Ronin]

Either nobody is going to die, or a [i]lot[/i] of people are going to die are my guesses.

Just drove by it today actually. Saw 10+ cop cars speed by and a helicopter hovering above. Someone called the tip line probably so it could be one of the shooters.

A bunch of morons in a quasi-militant outfit patrolling an interstate openly being vigilantees.

Fuckin' brilliant.

[ccg]

How are they planning on even catching him if all he does is shoot people from his car?

[CanadianBill]

So now people will mistake this group as the shooter(s) and call the tip line

More importantly when the police are looking out for tips on strange people around the highway, having strange people around the highway is going to make their job harder

the last thing this incident needs is a group of cowboys trying to get involved
