[quote:Anonymous Coward 875582:MV8xMTk1MTkwXzE5NDAxMTA0XzgyRUE4NjRD] "The group apparently included members of three families of El Salvadoran immigrants, he said. Whitmore described the church as "fundamentalist in nature" and a "close-knit organization". and "Earlier this year, the group had planned to head to Vasquez Rocks, a wilderness area near Palmdale, to await a similar event, but one member of the group revealed details of the trip to family members and it was called off." http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39251083/ns/us_news-life/ Maybe they are bugging out - or maybe heading back to El Salvador?

Original Message
Officials in Southern California issued an emergency alert late Saturday for six adults and eight children who are members of a "cult-like" group believed to be planning a mass suicide.
"They were awaiting the rapture or some other catastrophic event," Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Captain Mike Parker said.
Steve Whitmore, a spokesman for the sheriff's department, told a hastily called news conference covered by KNBC that the group believed "they were going to meet Jesus or deceased relatives."
