      @UnTucked:

      Crazy guy made in on to the base (RAF Mildenhall)…

      He made it through the main gate and about a mile further before he was engaged by the Military Police/Security Forces. Lots of gunfire literally RIGHT OUTSIDE of my office building, but he kept going and made it about another mile, when he rushed the flight line, and crashed in to a parked aircraft (CV-22 "Osprey").

      Motives are unknown at this time. I'll likely be at work late today since we currently cannot leave our office building, because the entire area outside of it is a crime scene at this point.

        Tell me about it… One of my co-workers actually unknowingly walked out in to the middle of it all...

        He was trying to go to his car just as the MP's were preparing to shoot the engine block to disable the vehicle. From how everything is taped off right now and the location of the building entrance, my co-worker was likely about 20ft from the action. They yelled for him to get back in the building, and once he made it in and the door closed, shots were fired.

              I'm fairly shocked they didn't as well, but I can fully envision the area he drove through/to, and there are lots of offices/buildings over that way.

              Either way, freedom probably won't be in his future any time soon after crashing in to a $90million aircraft.

                  Actually it's kinda creepy. Nobody is scared, but we're all bothered by the inconvenience of not being able to leave the building, lol!

                          You don’t need to leave the building. You quit smoking right??? 😉

                          Glad no one got hurt.

                            Anyone in here in a management position that would be willing to drop some pearls of wisdom?

                                        You fellas talking to me? Regardless this is was/is a mess of unknowable proportion. It looks like a scene  from Dexter. But harder to clean up.
