No info in the article as to how the suspect died. I wonder if the deputies shot back?

This story will garner 1/100th of the media attention that the story of the men arrested for loitering at the Starbuck’s got.
To: Rj Snows
So you’re saying an ambush can’t be from an MS-13 illegal or Obama son? Say what?

They were eating at a Chinese restaurant. He shot them both in the head through the front window and then killed himself. Trenton is a pretty rural area, about 20 mins west of Gainesville. Sad.

Condolences to families and friends of the murdered deputies.

Was the shooter dead at his own hands, or did one of the cops manage to shoot him before he died himself?

Take them down. I’m tired of this crap. Police should continue fire until the perp is clearly no longer a threat.

I am wondering what is the back story? Or is this just a random act of violence? I’m interested to hear more re: the matter.
To: Jed Eckert
Oh how sad, many prayers for the Deputies and their grieving families.
So senseless.
