He was in critical condition but has been upgraded to fair. It is not know if he has regained consciousness.

Olsen’s roommate Keith Shannon, who served with him in Iraq, said Olsen would be undergoing surgery “within a day or two”.

Shannon, who lives with Olsen in Daly City, a city south of San Francisco, said it was “great” that Olsen had been upgraded to “fair” status, but said concerns remained as to whether he may have suffered brain damage.

He was sedated upon arrival at the hospital on Tuesday night. His parents flew in from Wisconsin and were at his bedside on Thursday.

Oakland’s police chief Howard Jordan has promised a vigorous investigation into the incident which has provoked heavy criticism across the US, sparking solidarity marches in dozens of Occupy camps in the country.

The reference to “IRA” style attack is to the ‘double bombing’ strategy developed at some point by the IRA and mimicked later by Eric Rudolph and I’m fairly certain now used in Iraq and Afghanistan. Pull the fire alarm and when the fire trucks come shoot at them. (That was an analogy. Pulling the firearm is a bomb, shooting at them is a second bomb that is set to go off where you know the police will park their cars when they arrive.)
