Suspected Killer Still on Loose, but for How Long?

Eric Frein's picture.

 In this article by BBC, a suspect in the Pennsylvania police officer shooting has been named. The police claim the suspect is Eric Matthew Frein. He had opened fire on police with a .308 caliber rifle. Later, his vehicle was found submerged in a swamp with shell casings and identification inside. It has been said that he had stolen two firearms from his father's house, an AK platform rifle and the .308 caliber firearm used in the murder itself. Frein has been noted saying anti-police and government sentiments. He has also been called a "survivalist" by many, meaning that the search will most likely be very difficult. Also found in his vehicle was various pieces of military gear, most likely based off of the uniforms and equipment used by Eastern European forces, and camouflage face paint, which just reinforces this "survivalist" theory for most people. Eric Frein may have owned this equipment because he was in a military simulation group, however. He and some others would replay Cold War simulations and play the role of Eastern European forces. Through all of this searching and speculation, a funeral was held for the murdered police officer. More than 1,000 officers showed up. Eric Frein will be found, it is only a matter of time.
