Nah, just another day in Long Beach
By the way, the LAPD has almost 10000 sworn officers. So, 150 for an active shooter call, especially at a hospital, would be lowish normal.
Man detained, searched, home searched because of umbrella

Thanks for this story, and the added wrinkle of the umbrella which is conveniently left out of the reporting, lol, and is the funniest part of the story (given no one was shot - but searching the guy's house is bs).

So what if he had had a rifle at his house?
This is an outrageous act and a civil rights abuse.

was the umbrella fully automatic?
this is so appropriate for california. I saw somewhere on there "The lockdown was lifted, and the investigation was continuing."
I can see it now.
"did you see a gun"
"no"
"only an umbrella"
"search his home, we heard we have an active shooter here at our current location"
"why then do we need to search his home if the active shooter is here?"

Worse....fully-semi-automatic with a shoulder-thing-that-goes-up.
Well a member here was reported to have an AR15 because he had a jack on the hood of his vehicle. I doubt the response was the same though.

Ok, that's actually funny.
It's has been a long night.
Boats, I think that people are wanting links due to the level of activity in the story. Someone reports a guy with an umbrella thinking it was a gun. Makes sense, I can see that. Police responding, check. 150 of them, a little much but it is CA. Then the report about searching his house. I think that is where the "hard to believe" comes in. Especially since the links didn't mention it.

I'm surprised people here are surprised, hell put three bayonet lugs on an AR here in MD and I think it is prison time. Surprise.
Wrong, without consent a warrant is still required to search his house... Someone can correct me if they believe I'm wrong, but beings the home was not the scene of the original alleged crime, their is no imminent probable cause to search his home, thus a sighed warrant is required to search his home,
I'm just surprised,( not surprised really) that everyone...or some I should say.... seems to make all these conclusions from a text message and 2 very brief news stories with almost no facts....no one on mds knows what really happened but yet seem to know what was done wrong....oh well.

You may be right, but I asked my contact in CA and he said the "suspects" daughter consented to the search.of his home (remember, he and his wife were at the hospital
Good point, text messages did nothing to Strzok and girlfriend. Sorry, sarcasm, we come from a state that can tax rain so its easy to believe most things.

Peace through strength
The news report says "suspect" and "taken into custody" but also says no gun, no shooting, just some guy in the emergency room. Is this what the police told the reporter or is this some editor making things up and leaving out convienent details? Maybe its "comforting speak" so all the snowflakes can go back thinking their unicorns are safe.
