I'm thinking the same thing... diversion. He's probably hanging out on a Mexican beach sipping margaritas, watching the news, and laughing.
Or he froze to death up on Bear Mountain last night, which would be okay.
Hard to say.
I think he’s in L.A., maybe gone to ground, waiting and biding his time until he strikes. He’ll pick off the occasional random patrolman, one or two at a time, or try to go after one of the targets he mentioned (or their families).
If he’s good, and by that I mean methodical and careful, well, I hate to say it, but he could rack up one hell of a bodycount before he goes down.
I’m not sure this nutcase is all that prepared. In the video at the link it claims that after the rope got wrapped up in the propeller (Ha!) he “became frustrated”. Perhaps he had a Plan A (steal a boat) and a Plan B (okay, if stealing a boat doesn’t work, I’ll take my truck with the motorcycle and .50 cal and head to my hideout in Vegas after burning my truck at Big Bear).
But I doubt it.
I liked the part where this master criminal assassin dropped his briefcase and badge.

Excerpt:
The disgruntled ex-LAPD officer suspected of shooting three police officers Thursday morning and killing a couple in Irvine earlier this week tried to steal a boat in San Diego and flee to Mexico, authorities said....
The 81-year-old boat owner reported being accosted and tied up by a burly man dressed in black who threatened him with a gun and said he wanted the boat to flee to Mexico. But while the assailant was trying to start the boat, a rope became fouled in the propeller and the boat was inoperable, authorities said....
About 2 a.m., a citizen reported finding property belonging to Dorner on a street near Lindbergh Field, not far from the scene of the attempted boat theft. The property included a briefcase and Dorner’s LAPD badge.
