Title [edit]
Raoul Moat is, literally, just over there as far as I'm concerned (I know folk from Rothbury). I rather doubt some of our other contributers know the name. Blood Red Sandman (Talk) (Contribs) 19:21, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you, Tempo. That's much better. Blood Red Sandman (Talk) (Contribs) 20:03, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
Not detained yet [edit]
- Police have officially refuted earlier agency reports that there has been an arrest or a detention. As of now, he is apparently contained, with negotiations ongoing. PerryWhite (talk) 19:25, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
Cable [edit]
I haven't seen anything related to a cable on either BBC News or Sky News. I've removed it [as BBC Newcastle isn't as notable/reputable as Sky]. — μ 21:31, July 9 2010 (UTC)

I am logging here, notes from conversation with 2 amateur radio operators who were present with RAYNET during this incident. The notes take the form of entries from my station log, and will be transcribed in order to make sense. In these notes, I am referred to by my callsign, 26HS2018.

Shots fired ? [edit]
See: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/10583839.stm BBC Radio Newscastle was reporting same...

- Yes. BBC and Sky published police statement [1] that Moat killed himself at about 1.15 this evening. Lets take the breaking news banner off this article, and copy and paste the background into a new one. --InfantGorilla (talk) 06:57, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
