Sounds like he committed suicide.

Wow: you make a Coronor's verdict from second hand audio...that's a hell of a skill.

You haven't even seen the body yet Michael! Shocked

I didn't realise you were a Pathologist.

Yes, that would be pleasant for his family.

Replay it at the TOTH!

By "sounds" I wasn't referring to the shot sound, I meant the various anchors/experts/correspondents comments. Maybe "seems" would have been a better word...

They were not broadcasting any live audio from the scene when it happened (Kay Burley was talking). It's possible that any recording has the reporters/producers chatting (possible saying something like 'I wish that woman would shut up') over it.

Sky News is the channel to be on now, sadly.

It's a stand off, it's dramatic, it's live on Sky News - Burley. She deserves a BAFTA!

She deserves lots of things... none of them a BAFTA Rolling Eyes

I'll finsh my kebab watching BBC News.

They'll tell me what is confirmed. Then I'll skip through an Emmerdale and 2 Corries, before bed!

One of the problems with BBC News having to produce an international news channel overnight.

It does seem like the BBC are first with the police statement about shots being fired and the suspect has a gunshot wound and is getting treatment (read by Collette Hume rather than read out by the police officer)

5 Live are reporting that he shot himself

The BBC are missing the press conference now. John Sopel will be turning in his bed! All his hard work for nothing.

This is almost like a conference for Sky cause only Andrew is asking questions.
Does BBC even have a reporter there still?
