Black Harris #154 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Looks like he is in Big Bear and in a gun fight with a bunch of angry Fish and Game officers Over soon I suspect BH
Blue Wolf , SASS# 29424L Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I hope so and I hope nobody else is injured or killed. Blue Wolf
Iron Pony Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Seems like he's holed up in a cabin now. Remember that line in die hard when one of the badguys says words to the effect of "oh look LAPD has an RV" as the APC roles out? I think this would be a great time to employ such a vehicle, or maybe a borrowed M1 Abrams tanks. Yeah that would be much better, an M1 and instead of using a sissy little ram thingy one HEAT round from the 120MM main gun to open the door and one round of flechette to "pin him down".
J. Mark Flint #31954 LIFE Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 In his Manifesto he mentions the APC and the fact that he owns .50 caliber rifles which would render it useless. I hope he isn't setting a trap.
Brasspounder Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Time to bring in a drone and fix the problem.
Tarheel Rifleman, SASS # 23477 Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Just heard. Looks like a simple smoke grenade fixed the problem -- set the cabin on fire and a single gun shot was heard. The police are waiting for the flames to die down before searching fo the body.
Manatee Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 There must have been 1,000 California LEO's in on this capture. My suggestion: They shoulda just sent in 1 Texas Ranger.
Deputy Spenser Hawk Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Please say a prayer for the family of the deputy killed today and for the speedy recovery of the other injured. Coming up on a year one of my co-workers gunned down in the line of duty. Always a sad day.......DSH
Injun Ryder, SASS #36201L Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Believe it or not, but one of the major news stations in LA (CH 9, owned by CBS) is preempting the SOU address with the coverage of this event. At this time, they are still covering it.

And they were doing really well until Carter Evans reported that Dorner had flash suppressors on his rifles so they were silenced and the officers could not determine where the fire was coming from.

Texas Jim Henry, SASS #20616 Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Best comment of the night (I'm not making this up), came from Bill O'Reilly on FOX News... "He's toast." Regards, TJH

BH And the ex FBI deputy drector who said rounds cooking off made it too dangerous to get close because of the projectles flying around And another this morning "expert" explaining that tear gas isn't really a gas.
John Boy Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 ex FBI deputy drector who said rounds cooking off made it too dangerous to get close because of the projectles flying around Believe the ex FBI deputy director should go back to school and read the SAAMI video
Phiren Smoke GUNFIGHTER Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 If ammo is not confined in a firearm's chamber a sealed can of soup can present more danger than the ammo in a fire. However, if that same round is in the chamber of a semi auto firearm with a full mag each round can cook off and fire cycling the gun as designed and chamber another round. Recoil can cause the gun to turn slightly or jump severely depending on power of the round and weight of the gun. This will lay down some very effective supressive fire until the mag is empty or the rounds in the mag cook off before they are chambered. I would guess he had more than one loaded semi auto so imagine that scenerio happening several times as the fire would reach one firearm and then another. Rounds in a revolver will fire just as if the primer was impacted but only one will exit the barrel the others will most likely impact the frame in front of the cylinder I am a retired firefighter and if I had standard firefighting gear on and someone threw six 45 lc rounds in a camp fire I might not be happy but I would not fear for my life. Take those same six rounds put them in tight chambers(so they cannot come out easily) of a cylinder removed from one of our cowboy revolvers and throw that in a campfire and all I can say is try to keep up boys cause I am getting out of Dodge. Hope this helps, Smoke
