Dorner had apparently switched plates on the truck, and the plate from the first Riverside shooting came back to an address in Torrance. Two LAPD detectives went to the address at 5:20am, roughly four hours after the Riverside officer was killed. On arrival, they spotted a vehicle driving toward them with lights out, and saw someone throw an object out the window in their direction. So.. middle of the night, at a residence associated in some unknown way with a cop killer, and having no idea by then whether he was still in the truck or some other vehicle he stole.

That’s the actual scenario. You can fault them for failing to realize that the object was a newspaper, but you really can’t fault them for the truck color issue because by that point, the guy could have switched vehicles. That does happen fairly frequently, you know.

Thanks for that actual scenario. Do you have anything more concrete?

BTW, two trucks were shot at a few miles apart, which was the result of misidentifying the suspect vehicle and opening up on innocents.

BTW, this was reportedly one of the targets of the suspect and a protection team was in place when the incident occurred with the females. But who knows.....

I fault them for being trigger happy morons.
