Unconfirmed reports on Twitter from multiple sources say that Muammar Gaddafi has been shot dead in Tripoli, but other sources are reporting that he has fled to Algeria. There are also reports that Gaddafi’s son Saif al-Islam has been captured.
One thing’s clear — it’s the end of the Gaddafi regime.

Al Jazeera has a live video feed; Gaddafi has been ranting away, but with a definite edge of desperation in his voice. Sources now believe Gaddafi is not in Tripoli, and may have already left Libya.
