Thread Name: BS: Possible Sniper Being Questioned
Subject: RE: BS: Possible Sniper Being Questioned
Thanks jeff.....I have now seen 3 pictures of vans. Two of them are standard vans, one being an Astro and the other a Ford. The other picture is a composite picture put together form witnesses earlier. Let me play with that one a moment......

The 2 vans with ladder racks could be used in a variety of businesses and both are pretty common in white. The ladder racks are pretty common too on such a vehicle used for some construction/painting/gutters/phone/cable TV, etc. business. BUT....let's look at that composite.....The composite is a small box truck and not truly a van. Again it would be common to use such a vehicle in one of those or a hundred other businesses. If I were a cop on this and I had any confidence at all in that composite photo, I might figure that this guy has access to more than one vehicle.....AND, here's the kicker--The composite looks nothing like an Chevy or Ford box truck, but it has a very distinctive cab with odd windows on the doors ala Volvo. Why not run the registrations on any Volvo box trucks in the VA,MD,DC, area and then run a check on Astro registrations.....There are bound to be a number of matches, but it's as good a way to waste time as I can think of at the moment.
