UPDATE: SHOOTER DOWN, HOSTAGES SAFE — Active Shooter in Charleston, SC!!

So this sounds very weird, but remember this is an early report and they’re often not reliable:

Tom and Patsy Plant were eating lunch at Virginia’s with their daughter Laura among 15 to 20 people.

They said a man came from the kitchen with a loaded revolver in his left hand and announced “There’s a new boss in town.”

One customer ran out back door. The Plants followed the customer, leaving their stuff in the restaurant

They described gunman as black man in his late 50s. Patsy said he looked like “an ordinary grandpa, but he had a crazy look. It was very crazy.”

“They (police) said there was an active shooter at they think Virginia’s,” said Doug Warner, a spokesman for Charleston Area Convention and Visitor’s Bureau.
