the corner office

Oh the excitement. Mr Moat has been found and has spent the last 4 hours negotiating with the fuzz.

Except maybe it isn't Mr Moat. According to the BBC:

Police say they are negotiating with a man fitting the description of fugitive gunman Raoul Moat in Rothbury.

Fitting the description? The dude's lying down alongside a river pointing a shotgun at his head. Who else could it be? Are we to wake up in the morning and find that it was actually a Mr James Fiffleby of Rothbury who was just having a really bad day, which got a whole lot worse when a battalion of armed coppers pulled in and started getting heavy with him?

Update: bummer.
