Naked 70-year-old man shoots two officers at his home, escapes, still at large and considered armed and dangerous, possibly on a red bicycle? And also his house burned to the ground shortly after the shooting. 🤔😳🤔

Is in those shitty little houses between McDonald’s and the Drive-in.

Apparently this guy was naked in his yard at like 2am, the neighbor called the cops and dude opened fire on them as soon as they arrived on scene.

Then house burns down. They sifted through the ashes yesterday and didn’t find any evidence of human remains and ISP dogs have alerted a few times in the farmland west of town.

I m guessing he crawled in a drainage pipe and offed himself. Without someone picking him up, there’s nowhere really to go from where he was located.

"the sum value of my outfit will always be higher than yours."

Maybe? Dude has a previous conviction a few years ago for another indecent exposure...

...so maybe he's just a pederast. It is odd how often some meth ring is busted in Gibson. Like HOW MANY CAN THERE BE?!?!

Most remarkable thing: a single house fire precipitated mutual aid from three other FDs

Gibson City Fire Chief Bruce Kallal said his agency was called to Jordan’s burning home at 146 W. Ash St. around 3 a.m. Saturday and immediately requested mutual aid from the nearby Sibley, Elliott and Melvin/Roberts fire departments. The fire destroyed the $175,000 home and caused an additional $50,000 in damages to a neighboring residence at 142 W. Ash St. and its detached garage, Kallal said.

yea, that's pretty standard, any fully involved structure fire will have several departments.

Sometimes it is provide coverage for the rest of the area or to provide relief (assuming most of those departments are volunteer and not fully staffed).

All of those departments mentioned are small, its not like they sent 3 vehicles each.
