(JOINED IN PROGRESS)

CHARLES MOOSE, MONTGOMERY COUNTY POLICE CHIEF: ... as occurred last night, a brief statement, not taking any questions. Just want to ask the indulgence of the media that the message that needs to be delivered is that we are going to respond to a message that we have received. We will respond later. We are preparing our response at this time.

HARRIS: Chief Moose there, coming out with a very short and terse statement now, saying that they are going to be responding to a message later, not at this particular time. We were just able to catch that comment from Chief Moose. He just delivered that message here, saying the message he wants to put out to the public today, perhaps to the one set of ears out there, is that there will be a response coming from the investigation team here, and it will be coming later today.

Coming back to you, Mr. Handy (ph), what do you make of that?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Maybe there is more to this. Maybe a second shoe is going to drop. Had there been two people involved in this? Maybe it's one at a time? We just don't know. It's all conjecture and speculation. But something continues to evolve here.

HARRIS: I believe we (UNINTELLIGIBLE) the chief saying that a communication or some statement from them was expected, and was requested.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We just don't know yet. We'll just have to wait and see.
