My commuter bus had just picked up passengers and left the Pentagon less than 10 minutes before this happened. The shooter wasn't in the bus terminal area, but even so was not far from there. Astonishing that he drove all the way from California to do this! http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_pentagon_metro_shooting My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
