The psycho shot the daughter of a former LAPD captain as well as the woman's fiance.
Local, state and federal authorities are involved in the search for former LAPD officer Christoper Jordan Dorner, 33, who is suspected in the shootings of three police officers, one fatally, in Orange County. Dorner is also wanted in connection with a double homicide Sunday in Irvine, where the daughter of a retired LAPD captain and her fiance were killed.
The Los Angeles Police Department is examining a manifesto it said was published on what the agency believes is Dorner’s Facebook page. In the document, Dorner threatened “unconventional and asymmetrical warfare” against police.
The search intensified early Thursday after three police officers were shot in Riverside County and Dorner was identified as a possible suspect.
The first Torrance incident occurred about 5:20 a.m. in the 19500 block of Redbeam Avenue in Torrance, Chase said. That incident involved Los Angeles police detectives from the Hollywood division, sources said.
Cops shooting innocent civiliansTwo people were struck by gunfire and transported to an area hospital with unknown injuries, Chase said. No officers were injured.
The second incident, which involved Torrance police, occurred at Flagler Lane and Beryl Street about 5:45 a.m. No injuries were reported in that incident.
Chase said both incidents involved vehicles matching the description of the one sought in connection with Dorner.
"Now it appears neither of them are directly related," Chase said. "In both of them, officers believed they were at the time."
