ABC News is reporting, fired Los Angeles Police Department officer
and U.S. Navy reservist, Christopher Dorner, has been killed in a shoot
out with police, during an intense, expensive manhunt. Before Dorner's
death, he released a mentally ill manifesto, praising a number of
Hollywood stars, whilst threatening to kill LAPD police officers and
their families.
Days prior to his death, Dorner shot and killed a police officer.
Dorner is also accused of attempted murder regarding three additional
police officers. When police closed in on him today, he shot and killed
and second police officer. It is believed Dorner was killed today
during the aforementioned shoot out with police, after barricading
himself in a cabin in the city of Big Bear, California. The cabin burst
into flames and it is being stated Dorner's charred body has been
recovered. However, a positive ID has not been made on the body. An
announcement is expected shortly.
