LOS ANGELES (AP) -- There was no question. The man standing before Rick Heltebrake on a rural mountain road was Christopher Dorner. Clad in camouflage from head to toe and wearing a bulletproof vest packed with ammunition, the most wanted man in America over the last week was just a few feet away, having emerged from a grove of trees holding a large, assault-style rifle.

Couldn't that indicate the fugitive was dead?
“burners deployed and we have a fire.” Said in matter-of-fact way, that the fire is expected result of deploying the burners. Then repeated back in just the same way.
Thanks for the link — http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCdqybEfy9w
I suppose it could. That explains why they promptly burned the whole place to the ground, they thought he was dead! Bless your heart.
So far, you have posted nothing but emotion all evening. You have not answered constitutional questions posed or even considered anything some of us have said.
You post crap from the media that clearly says ‘according to officials’ and then a left wing site. If is all emotion driven and/or poorly sourced. Have you even bothered to listen to the scanner audio from yesterday?
Perhaps the leap to why the slang term for the incendiary tear gas canisters is "burners" escapes him as well.
Bless his heart.

18 hours ago ... scanner pulled from an unofficial Internet stream also includes numerous references to burners, which is police slang for tear gas canisters.
I tried to spare everyone. Do you want more?
Apparently he is somewhat of a hero to some Freepers. I’m stunned. Whatever happened to this thug was what he deserved. I would like to see people making some of these comments to the widow and children of the deputy he killed on his last shooting spree.
This knee-jerk hatred of cops is disgusting.
ROTFLOL!!! Since when do links have emotions?
You post crap
You're getting a bit emotional aren't you? Tell me, what exactly is "unconfirmed audio clips"? Why would the authorities, knowing full well that scanners are monitored by the media and private citizens, attempt to do anything nefarious? Can you answer the questions???????????????
Why would you want to spare everyone? I heard the stuff with my own ears. Exactly who says that ‘burners’ are slang for tear gas? Was it only said today by officials involved? I have seen no evidence that this is true at all so far. Just because someone writes it in the media is not proof enough for me. Now if a FReeper swat member comes to this thread and tells me otherwise, I will believe him or her. Call me jaded. I don’t care.
I am done arguing with you. You seem to be acting deliberately obtuse. I have spent enough time on this whole discussion. Have a nice evening.
I don’t think he’s acting...
My belief is that they were going to MAKE SURE he was never taken alive, no matter what it took.
Most people are offended by the word "motherf*cker". I attempted tp spare them.
Exactly who says that burners are slang for tear gas?
Why haven't you already queried an LEO? Call your local PD.
Call me jaded.
No, I call you emotional.
Your limitations are obvious.
You are running off without addressing the questions. Why?
Dude, “burners” were deployed. Might as well link the Onion.
” Exactly who says that burners are slang for tear gas? “
It is cop slang in southern California for tear gas canisters.
“Was it only said today by officials involved? I have seen no evidence that this is true at all so far”
No, reporters who routinely cover police in SoCal all know this. Apparently they forgot to send you the memo.
Dudette, that appears to be up your alley.
