Manhunt underway after ex-cop allegedly shoots officers and threatens ‘asymmetrical warfare’

Los Angeles police launched a manhunt Thursday morning seeking former officer Christopher Jordan Dorner for allegedly shooting three officers, at least one of them fatally.

***

He published a lengthy manifesto online that named Quan and several others, castigating the department for using excessive force and promoting allegedly corrupt officers. He then threatened to carry out unconventional warfare on anyone wearing an LAPD uniform.

“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants-TJ,” he wrote. “This quote is not directed toward the US government which I fully support 100%. This is toward the LAPD who can not monitor itself.”

He ominously added: “The Violence of action will be HIGH. I am the reason TAC [tactical] alert was established. I will bring unconventional and asymmetrical warfare to those in LAPD uniform whether on or off duty. ISR [intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance] is my strength and your weakness. You will now live the life of the prey.”

Authorities are seeking a fired Los Angeles police officer suspected in the killings of two people, including a Cal State Fullerton assistant basketball coach whose father represented the suspect in front of a disciplinary board when he lost his job, police said Wednesday night.

Former LAPD officer and U.S. Navy reservist Christopher Jordan Dorner, 33, is the suspect in the killings of Monica Quan, 28, and her 27-year-old fiance, Keith Lawrence, who were found shot to death in their car at a parking structure Sunday night, Irvine police Chief David L. Maggard said at a news conference.

Police said Dorner implicated himself in the killings with a multi-page "manifesto" that he wrote that included threats against several people, but would give no further details on the document or its contents.

CBS Los Angeles station KCBS says that, in the rambling manifesto, Dorner wrote, "I never had the opportunity to have a family of my own, I'm terminating yours."
