No live feed that I know of, sorry man.

Dispatch just advised the station commander that a FBI helo is armed & ready to provide support, if needed.

Shoot the rotten bastards I say.....bring em alive & it just cost dollars to take em to court & they claim they are nuts or something.....

My post from the Major Incident thread:

Freqhopping and Towpro - lets all update this thread as info comes in.
Dispatched sounds like she's freakin'. They're doing roll call on sully dispatch, I presume because they have a signal 13, and don't know who it came from.

Sounds like they have an officer down.

News says that there is a gunman in camo shooting at PD cruisers

Local news is breaking into programming with reports

Sully Station command reports "all officers are accounted for, and no officers require treatment at this time"

A unit is reporting to be out with the vehicle @ Hawskins/Paddington Ln - Tac team units are onscene and clearing the vehicle

Channel 4 has continuing coverage and is reporting 4 officers hit - 3 in critical condition. WRC 4 is reporting FCPD will be holding a press conference at 5:30 at Fairfax Hospital.

Non-Tactical team ops are being moved to Sully ops 1 (SU9 OPS1)

Westfields HS locked down

Right now there are no confirmed officers DOA. It is inappropiate to report that an officer is DOA without confirmation from the PIO in this case.

CONFIRMED INFO FROM FCPD PIO - 2 officers shot & 1 suspect shot - nothing further confirmed - no condition of the officers reported

I've got some accurate details however I'm going to keep them to myself at this time due to the nature of them.

I just talked to a FFX Co PD friend of mine who is out of town and feeling really helpless right now. But he is now listening in on my scanner feed.

No those are the Motor Ops aka MOPS channels that I IDed long ago but was completely ignored when I submitted them for the database.:confused:
Also, not being used is 16096 MOPS-3

Usually the MOPS channels are used for funeral escorts and extended traffic control operations.

1827- Looks like MOPS-3 is being used now too.

1832- 30 listeners on my feed, that's the MAX.

Also, on the above link? Is it supposed to be a to a scanner or news radio?

news radio fm103.5/am820 WTOP..

WTOP traffic reports Sully Rd CLOSED between I-66 and Lee-Jackson Hwy.

When someone asked for links I was thinking media, sorry about that. I'm in Norfolk so cannot listen to FCPD directly. I tried the scanner link but couldn't get it to work.

UNCONFIRMED, reported through NBC4/WUSA9

1 female detective dead
1 male suspect dead

Channel 9 is known for "sensationalism" , so take it with a grain of salt...

Sadly, the reports of a fallen officer are correct, confirmed through a police source :(

MSP's Trooper-2 must've been helping out. I just heard them with DCA Tower on 120.75 saying they were 14 miles west of Washington and would be heading back to Martin State Airport.

The slain detective's name, and more details about the horrible incident have been released, along with a picture of Detective Armel.

Investigation has determined that the sequence of events leading up to Monday’s shooting began with an attempted carjacking. The Department of Public Safety Communications (DPSC) received a call at 3:37 p.m. that a heavily-armed man attempted to carjack a Ford pickup truck in the 14800 block of Bodley Square in the London Towne community in the Centreville area. At 3:45 p.m. DPSC received a second report that a Chevrolet minivan had been carjacked in the 6200 block of Paddington Lane. This is one block away from the first reported incident. The description of the suspect for both incidents was similar, a white man wearing a black mask dressed in camouflage clothing and armed with several weapons. At 3:52 p.m. reports of gunfire at the Sully District Station were received.

The suspect drove the minivan into the parking lot of the police station, exited the minivan and immediately began firing on officers. The first officer struck had been parking his cruiser when he was shot more than a five times and critically injured. Detective Vicky O. Armel was in the process of responding to a radio broadcast of the carjacking when the suspect confronted her in the parking lot. She exchanged gunfire with the suspect and was mortally wounded after being shot multiple times. Three more officers exchanged gunfire with the suspect before killing him. In all, the suspect fired over 70 rounds at officers. He was armed with an AK-47 assault-style weapon, a long-barreled, high-powered rifle and five handguns. He carried an extensive amount of ammunition.

Detective Armel, 40, was a nine-year veteran of the Department who worked in the Criminal Investigations Section at the Sully District Station. She leaves behind a husband and two children. In keeping with Departmental police, her home address will not be released.

Identification of the injured officers is not being released. The hospitalized officer is still in critical condition.

The suspect has been identified as Michael Kennedy, 18, of 6200 Prince Way in Centreville.
