Man Arrested After Intense Search

A deputy was shot and killed during a routine traffic stop, and a suspect is in custody after an intense manhunt by land and air, a Kenosha County sheriff's official said Thursday.

Deputy Frank Fabiano Jr. was trying to pull over a red Chevrolet Astro van near the University of Wisconsin-Parkside campus at about 11:37 p.m. Wednesday when he was shot once in the face, according to the Kenosha County Sheriff's Department.

A Parkside police officer serving as a backup radioed that shots had been fired and a deputy was down. He also returned fire, according to the Kenosha County Sheriff's Department.

he shooting happened in an upscale neighborhood on 45th Avenue just south of Highway E.

The gunman disappeared into a wooded area, as dozens of squad cars streamed into the area. A helicopter and police dogs were brought in to search for the male suspect.

As the three-hour manhunt began, authorities sent a telephone message -- a "child is missing" alert -- to residents of the area urging them to be on the alert.

Kenosha County Sheriff David Beth said people called in tips that were useful.

Kenosha County Sheriff's spokesman Gil Benn said the 44-year-old suspect was arrested at the Woodcreek Apartment Complex, located about a half-mile from the shooting scene just after 2:30 a.m.

Ezequiel Lopez Ezequiel Lopez Ezequiel Lopez was hiding behind some cars and was still armed, according to Beth.

He was treated at Kenosha Memorial Hospital for injuries and is in the Racine County Jail.

Beth said the suspect had eight aliases and at least five Social Security numbers. The sheriff said Lopez has a Kenosha address, although it was not known if it is current. Lopez, who was born in Durango, Mexico, has also been arrested several times.

Fabiano was transported to St. Catherine's Hospital, where he pronounced dead. He is survived by his wife and 7-year-old daughter.

Fabiano, an 18-year veteran of the force, received a silver star from the Kenosha County Sheriff's Department for rescuing someone from a burning building in Paddock Lake in 1991. He also received a purple heart in 1991 after getting shot in Paddock Lake.

He graduated from Bradford High School in 1977 and loved to go golfing, Beth said.

The Wisconsin Department of Criminal Investigation is now in charge of the case.

It's been almost seven years since a law enforcement officer from southeastern Wisconsin died while on duty.

Milwaukee County deputies Ralph Zylka and Sung-Hui Bang were killed in August 2000 when their helicopter crashed while on a manhunt in the central part of the state.

I realize that it is an easy assumption, but is there confirmation that this guy is illegal?

Either way, it makes this no less tragic.

Oh geez, I hope this incident won’t slow down the fast track citizenship train for this outstanding individual that Bush/Kennedy says America needs.

R.I.P. Deputy Frank Fabiano Jr., and God be with your family & friends left behind.

So, would this suspect would be included in this amnesty program that Congress thought would be such a “great” idea? Lord help us all (PLEASE)......

I am sure our President and Senate would be only to happy to give him 5 checks.

The dead man is just another white American and probably conservative. So he is expendable </scarasm>

May his family have some comfort for their loss

They don’t come right out and say it. That wouldn’t fit the liberal MSM template for “approved” newspeak.

I think the clues are large enough to trip over with a name like "Ezequiel Lopez" and having eight aliases and five Social Security numbers.

Well I guess the Feds will give this guy 5 Z visa’s under the new plan. That way he can vote 5 times.

If we would only extend amnesty and a path to citizenship to these undocumented immigrants, they would have legitimate identification and wouldn't needlessly resort to desperate violent measures to flee from law enforcement officers.

/Congress off

He was shot once in the face, according to the Kenosha County Sheriff's Department.

I wonder how the deputies on Kenosha Sheriff's Department feel about illegal aliens, and the amnesty being forced on us right about now.

No, but he gets 5 z-visas, 5 cervezas, 5 anchor baby options, 5 chain migration cards, 5 DNC membership cards and 5 race cards to be played as needed.

If Kenosha County police knew about this guy, why was he allowed to stay in the U.S.A.? Is Kenosha County a haven for the illegal aliens? Be interesting to know.
