ED Ashley Hawkins: "We have to have each other's backs ... We're gonna have to make our couches available. We're going to have to make a lot of prints ... that feels scary and challenging, but also completely within our capacity, because it’s what we're already doing.”

One question: did the tip or suspects mention a planned shooting AT Dogwood Dell? Everything I've read (not necessarily super thorough, and I haven't FOIAed or anything) mentions the plan for a mass shooting and the date, not the location. You know what they say about assuming.
