Former LAPD officer on rampage in So Cal
http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/07/us/lap...html?sr=fbmain
(CNN) -- A former Los Angeles police officer who police say has violently threatened his former colleagues shot at least two officers early Thursday, killing one, sparking a huge manhunt in Southern California, according to authorities. Christopher Jordan Dorner, 33, is also wanted in a double slaying Sunday in Irvine, California. The California Highway Patrol issued an alert Thursday morning urging officers in several Southern California counties to be on the lookout for Dorner after the overnight shootings. Two officers in Riverside were shot, one fatally, police there confirmed to CNN. CNN affiliate KTLA reported another officer was shot in Corona, California. Irvine police identified Dorner on Wednesday as the suspect in the February 3 deaths of Keith Lawrence and Monica Quan in Irvine. Dorner also has made violent threats against other Los Angeles police officers, the agency said Wednesday. "I will bring unconventional and asymmetrical warfare to those in LAPD uniform whether on or off duty," Dorner allegedly wrote in a lengthy letter promising retribution against the department, where he worked from 2005 until 2008. An LAPD source provided the document to CNN. The letter writer claimed he was terminated for reporting excessive force by a fellow officer, and said his attacks were retribution for his termination, as well as a culture of racism and violence he says continues within the department. He called the attacks against police "a necessary evil that I do not enjoy but must partake and complete for substantial change to occur within the LAPD and reclaim my name." Los Angeles police warned people who encounter Dorner not to approach him, saying he is likely "armed and extremely dangerous." "Our department is implementing all measures possible to ensure the safety of our LAPD personnel, their families and the Los Angeles community, and will continue to do so until Dorner is apprehended and all threats have been abated," police said in a statement. CNN's Mallory Simon and Deanna Hackney contributed to this report. |

IMO, I'm starting to think he either escaped or he did have hostages with him and they were all killed from either Dorner or the fire. It doesn't make sense to me why the police haven't released anything yet.

Wait him out. It has to come to a head eventually since he has finite supplies. Burning him out seems extreme... if that was their intent. |

He was shooting them at the moment they started the fire? I haven't heard that. I know he was shooting at them prior. If he was hulled up in the cabin and they had it surrounded, then there is no reason to start a fire. If he was shooting at them at the time and it's all they had to stop him then that's a different story. That's not a story I have heard.

We don't know what was going on at that point. He could have been trying to surrender, likely not, but burning the house down doesn't seem like something that is protocol Posted via Mobile Device |

And I am not convicting the cops. I don't know how it started. Maybe he did, maybe it was from hitting the tanks. My argument has just been against the thought that if the cops started it that it's ok.

No. He got in a pursuit prior. Then went running into the cabin. I don't think the hostages ran with him haha
