Live from the courtroom: An old white-haired man in the spectator’s gallery just shouted out the word “liar” during a break in Serial Shooter suspect Dale Hausner’s testimony this afternoon. The jury was still in the room, though they were on their way out.

“Sorry,” the man said when a deputy began to walk toward him. “I was talking to my bag.” He lifted up a small backpack he had with him.

Judge Roland Steinle ordered deputies to remove the man from the building and ban him from stepping foot in the courtroom again. “Sorry,” the man said again while exiting the room.
