I wouldn't be driving a truck for a while if I were in SOCAL. Just might get all shot up.

[Sopater]

... that’s two separate incidents now where police opened fire on a vehicle that they say looked similar to Dorner’s truck.

[Sopater]

I hope someone has told the police that his truck has been found and they can stop shooting at every truck that drives by now.

But now, if they don’t know what he’s driving, no one is safe.

[donna]

I wonder what Harry Bosch has to say about this. Not much, I bet.

[passionfruit]

The truck didn’t even remotely match the one they were looking for.

If Joe Friday was alive, he would be spinning in his grave.

Hat tip to Yogi Berra.

The two women that had been shot by Los Angeles police detectives in Torrance were reportedly delivering newspapers. According to a witness, one woman was shot in the back, while another was shot in the hand.

They are gonna be very wealthy very soon..........

Did the truck have something like “NEWS VAN” or something similar so those Neanderthal cops wouldn’t be shooting at it. I bet it had a dog in there and they heard it barking.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

Sure don’t hear much about the other guy they shot at. Just the two women. I wonder why.

[gandalftb]

There was no excuse for the shoot, their careers are over and the ladies are going to the bank.

In any scenario, the cops knew they were looking for one black guy, why shoot at two people? The cops SOP is to check the license plate, what happened?

Looks like the S CA cops are pretty jumpy. This is exactly what Dorner wants.

[andyk]

An officer involved shooting which resulted in gunfire. HA! That’s some journalism.

Reminds me of that scene in Almost Heroes when they unload on the squirrel with the nut in its paws.

“He’s got something in his hands!!!”

[Navy Patriot]

Reasoned, rational, professional responses by prime examples of LA's finest.

Superior marksmanship with the entire fifty round fired as well.

We need a band and a parade.

[Fiji Hill]

The LAPD is making the Keystone Kops look like Seal Team 6.

[STD]

Or, some simpatico soul Brother might drop a concrete block on your head. Dorner’s merely the ghost of Rodney King’s Part Deux

[Tupelo]

I think we have all poked a little fun at the LAPD over their ATF, Keystone Kops approach here, but something suddenly dawned on me. I believe the cop on the street has orders to not take Dorner alive. I really wonder if there is something they, meaning the brass and politicos do not want out.
Why would they unload not only on these two women, but who was responsible for the “burning truck”.

I think Christopher Dorner is a dead man and we will never get the real story.

[Red in Blue PA]

The cops should lose their badges today and go to jail.

I carry a gun and if I did this, I would be immediately hauled away.

No excuse.
