Not a lot of new details from afternoon press conference in the Brenton murder. Here's the highlights from the Q&A:
Any solid leads? Not yet, but following up on a lot of possibilities from incoming information
Person of interest under arrest? The person under arrest is not a strong suspect
More specific vehicle description? No - still a general description of a beige/white/silver 2-door car
Federal support? Yes - From FBI, ATF, and practically every other federal agency with a law-enforcement function
Gang involvement? Not enough information to say yes or no so far. SPD did get a contact from a SoCal city where gang members shot at officers. Details of that investigation were provided to SPD.
Could there be a suspect out there with gunshot wounds? Definitely possible, but no reports from any hospital so far. And so far Officer Sweeney hasn't been able to definitively say whether the car or a suspect was hit by her return fire.
Type of gun? "Some type of firearm." Only thing ruled out is a shot gun - it was definitely a bullet-firing weapon.
Status on review of video from Saturday night? Still a lot of data to go through. No clear answer on whether Officer Brenton's patrol car video picked up anything of interest.0
