Whats scary is, people will take notes on his success and copy cat it.

Better planning, leaving the visable weapon and perhaps retaining a concealable one. Quick get away plan..etc.

May be able to ID through his victims...any victim ID's yet?

What's on his shirt? I can't quite make it out, no pictures I can find are clear enough to positively identify it. Maybe it's a map of Palestine, who knows.

While police in Burlington, Washington continued investigating Friday night's horror rampage at the Cascade Mall that left five people dead with the suspect still on the loose, people attending a gun rights conference 2,500 miles away in Tampa, Florida were introduced to a new book that offers advice on surviving such an event.

Unarmed Victim Zone is a whole lot more accurate.

If this guy had the presence of mind to completely wipe that weapon clean before leaving it, then we're looking at a dangerous cat.

Very tragic...
I thought Bloomgerg's law was supposed to prevent these tragedies.

Well let's take a minute to get some facts straight. Burlington is no where near Seattle. It is an hour drive north. It certainly can get a lot closer. I was in the Sears store at the Tacoma Mall back in the 2000's when Moldenado walked in the Mall with a loaded AK47. Just last month I was less than a block away from a shooting in Federal Way in broad daylight at 2:00 in the afternoon. So I am not sure what you would consider close to home. You being in Oregon you could have said that the shootings in LA hit close to home? It is real and you never know when something might happen. So yes I agree to ALWAYS be aware of your surroundings and in the back of your head always be thinking the worst case scenario. When you go to eat somewhere, sit against the wall so your back is covered.

I know EXACTLY where Burlington is in relation to Seattle. I lived in Puget Sound for 15 years. And since the members of this forum are from Oregon and Washington mainly I will say again that it DOES hit close to home. For ALL of us here.

Looks like they've arrested a suspect in Oak Harbor. See KOMO News.
Apparently name is Arcan Cetin.

Seattle TV KIRO is reporting that according to WSP the alleged murderer has been apprehended in Oak Harbor.

Great news!

I saw an arrest photo and it does look like the guy at the mall. On a scene like this initial information has to be treated with caution.

Well said.

Either that, or Hispanic. He's a typical ne'er-do-well though. The typical "hipster" (perpetually casual dress) is an indicator of his mental/emotional demeanor.

I do not understand how you know he's a typical ne'er-do-well. Sure, he's not wearing a three piece suit, but why does wearing a t-shirt and semi-baggy shorts mean you're a ne'er-do-well? A lot of my mentally stable, hard working, adult friends change into a t-shirt and semi-baggy shorts when they get home from work because it's comfortable.

The man arrested in Oak Harbor is named Arcan Cetin, and he's originally from Adana, Turkey.

Turkish guy. Seems that he knew at least one of the girls who worked at the makeup counter.

Looks like Facebook just took down his profile. I had a link to it on FB and my entire FB post disappeared.

It appears someone called Mr. Wolf
