Tyler Brehm 26
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/12/hollywood-shooter-identified.html

The Los Angeles County Coroner’s office has identified the man who shot at motorists in Hollywood Friday morning, wounding one, before he was shot and killed by police.

Tyler Brehm, 26, died near the intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Vine Street minutes after wandering up the street firing a handgun.

The incident, filmed by dozens at the busy intersection, brought police officers from across the city and clogged traffic for hours.

A Facebook member by the name of Tyler Brehm is listed as living in Hollywood and being from Carlisle, Penn.

On Tuesday, the site lists him as switching his status from “in a relationship” to “single."

The Facebook page has a photo album titled “Cali Dreams” apparently of a trip he took to California in 2009. He’d recently changed his hometown to Carlisle and listed his place of residence as Hollywood.

Eyewitnesses April Manlo and Chris Johns each state hearing multiple popping sounds which caught their attention. I mention this because the video report of Manlo's statement was somewhat lacking credibility given he stated he heard two shots but described the sound as pop, pop, pop, pop. Was it two or four shots?
The answer may lie here:
The driver of the Mercedes-Benz, Atterberry, was hit three times in the neck and face.. . .Police believe he fired off about 20 rounds, which means he reloaded at least once.link re:victim, John Atterberry
and here
"...injuring at least two men: The Hollywood Reporter’s photo editor, Chris Godley, who suffered an injury to his leg

Further investigative reporting is warranted on this. Particularly, I like to hear more from the shooter's 24 year old ex-girlfriend, Alicia Alligood about that pharma salesgal that supplied the shooter with some unknown product over recent weeks. I'd also be very interested in hearing more from April Manlo, the fella in the KTLA video who claims to have heard the shooter specifically shouting 'allahu akbar'...inquiring minds and all.

LA Times December 12, 2011, 10:09 p.m.
continues to report: LAPD homicide detectives are still trying to determine the motive for Brehm's rampage.


Again, not a single mention in any written reports of KTLA's eyewitness, April Manlo, who stated Tyler Brehm shouted allahu akbar repeatedly while shooting.

There is amateur video of Friday's shooting hosted at Gridley Herald. Notice audio inconsistencies which do not appear to be spontaneous. As the video opens, audio is clear only to suddenly go completely silent for a while without any apparent change in the video quality. The audio returns during verbal exchange between videographer and suspect at end.

Technical glitch or tampering?

GreeleyGazette: Witness: Hollywood shooter shouted “Allahu Akbar” as he fled
Posted by Matt Lacy •

A witness reported that a man who was randomly shooting at people in Hollywood, shouted “Allahu Akbar”, which means “Allah is greatest.”

The shooter, Tyler Brehm a 26 year old white male, began shooting at several vehicles in Hollywood at Sunset and Vine. During the shootings, at least one person was wounded. The police arrived and the suspect was shot and killed.

While police say they are still unsure of the motive for the shootings, a witness told KTLA Channel 5 the suspect was shouting “Allahu Akbar” as he ran away.

April Manlo told the reporter, “He was running over there, I heard two shots and he was shouting and running ‘Allahu Akbar.’”

A spokesman for the LAPD told the Gazette that at this time they were not able to confirm Manlo’s statement.

Investigators have not yet released a motive for Brehm’s rampage; however friends and neighbors say he was troubled over a recent breakup with his girlfriend.

It appears Brehm is not a Muslim. It is wrong to portray Brehm as something he is not. He is a disturbed person who should not have targeted innocent life. We want the truth! Not fabricated lies! Stop publishing things that are untrue. Yes, the media does sometimes put things in a false, misleading light. In this case it appears Brehm is a distraught killer who recently broke up.
