Paul Anthony Ciancia, 23, of Pennsville, NJ, Id’d by FBI as LAX Shooter Who Shot 8, Killing 1 TSA Agent This Morning

By Nicholas Stix

The media have not yet reported on whether the shooter is alive. On the one hand, they have said that he was shot multiple times in the chest, and that one (unnamed) person is in critical condition, insinuating that Ciancia is the latter. However, the only way someone could survive so many chest wounds is if he was wearing body armor. So, either Ciancia was wearing a bulletproof vest, or he’s dead. (P.S., 5:53 p.m.: Or the reports were incorrect.)
