BREAKING: Possible incident at Comet Ping pong DC (pizzagate)

submitted ago by Skanda

A man just walked into the Comet restaurant with an assault rifle. No shots fired but everyone ran out. I'm next-door at the red fox coffeeshop. 10+ police cars are already here.

EDIT: a man just exited with his hands on his head. He was handcuffed and put in a squad car. Still holed up in the red fox.

As posted on Reddit's Washington DC subreddit

UPDATE

“u/d COMET PINGPONG, 5037 Ct Av NW-DC. A man has surrendered to PD. SWAT-ERT and bomb techs will sweep Comet and man’s car parked outside.”

UPDATE 2: CONFIRMED

Something doesn't add up here. This is damage control. The New York Times article portrayed Alefantis/Comet Ping Pong as victims. As the heat dials up on them, the measures become more drastic. The public buy into the victim angle further.

Whether this has been concocted or is the work of a lunatic, it does not help our cause either way.
