A man has been arrested and charged with premeditated attempted murder in connection to an ambush shooting that left two Los Angeles deputies injured.

The deputies, a male and a female who have not been identified publicly, were sitting in their parked patrol vehicle in Compton on Sept. 12 when they were shot multiple times.

Deonte Lee Murray, 36, of Compton, was arrested on Sept. 15 in connection to a carjacking that happened earlier this month, said Captain Kent Wegener of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

It wasn't until after Murray's arrest in the carjacking incident that he was charged with the ambush shooting of the deputies. If convicted Murray faces a maximum of life in prison, District Attorney Jackie Lacey said at a news conference Wednesday.

"The gunman walked up on the deputies and opened fire without warning or provocation," the sheriff's department said.

The deputies underwent surgery and are recovering, Sheriff Alex Villanueva said at Wednesday's news conference. "They still face a lot of reconstructive surgery and it's going to be a lengthy process, but fortunately they're doing OK," he said.

The Amish are very serious about not wanting to be photographed.

Well Newsom just gave us the responsibility for those on Death Row until the next guvanah comes along. Kamala Harris wants to do this for all Federal Death Row inmates.
