Lindsey Pittman met Skip Wells in sixth grade at First Baptist Church in Woodstock, and they’ve been friends ever since.
Two guns belonging to service members were recovered at the scene, he said; shots were fired from at least one.
Waving American flags, the crowd was otherwise still as Gunnery Sgt. “I think the rules should be changed to allow them to carry weapons at a military center”.
But a Jordanian official says the uncle is under investigation over the shooter’s time with him there.
“All indications are – and we do not have the ballistic reports back – preliminarily, it looks like all victims were killed with the same weapon”, he said. Gen. Paul W. Brier, commanding general of the 4th Marine Division, said during a news conference.
In the motor pool area, two Marines tried to “provide cover” while their comrades tried to escape over the fence, Reinhold said. He would not elaborate on how the troops engaged Abdulazeez.
Recently, Abdulazeez had begun working the night shift at a manufacturing plant and was taking medication to help with problems sleeping in the daytime, the person said, and he had a prescription for muscle relaxants because of a back problem. When he did, Chattanooga officers confronted him.
An uncle of the man who killed four Marines and a sailor in Tennessee has been in custody in Jordan since a day after the attacks on two military sites, a lawyer said on Tuesday. A shootout erupted. One police officer was wounded; Abdulazeez was killed.
A Jordanian official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to reporters, said Wednesday that authorities are “trying to get as much information as possible” from Haj Ali.
Last year, to help with his recovery, he was taken to stay with his uncle, Assad Ibrahim Abdulazeez Haj Ali, in Amman, the family said. But when asked if Abdulazeez acted alone, Reinhold said he was now being treated as a “homegrown violent extremist”.
“He was just minding his own business and all of a sudden some guy came in and he was gone, just like that”. “That’s because he was such a great person”, said retired U.S. Navy Lt. Cmdr.
Reinhold said only that the FBI would investigate every possibility and every relative, no matter where they are located.
“Skip was our hero while he as at Sprayberry, but now we share him with our country and with the world”, said Esserwein.
President Barack Obama issued an order on Tuesday to lower the flag. “They’d be better off if they were walking down the streets of Baghdad because at least in Baghdad, they could move”.

“We preach citizenship. Wells was the ideal citizen”. “Our continued public trust lies among our trained first responders for the safety of the communities where we live and work”.
