LA authorities to offer $1m reward after failure of Christopher Dorner manhunt

Authorities in Los Angeles are expected to offer a $1m reward for information about the rogue ex-police officer who is suspected of killing three people, after a massive manhunt failed to catch him.

City officials, law enforcement groups and private donors were due to announce the reward on Sunday as the trail for Christopher Dorner in the mountains of Big Bear went cold, leaving police across southern California tense and fearful.

Dorner, 33, a former navy reservist and trained marksman, has declared war on law enforcement officers and their families, in revenge for his firing from the force. His rampage and the LAPD's blundering response – shooting and wounding people mistaken for the fugitive – has transfixed the US and turned Dorner, in some quarters, into a rebel folk hero.

In a surprise announcement on Saturday, police chief Charlie Beck ordered a review of the disciplinary case that led to Dorner's dismissal and promised to hear him out if he surrendered.

I think I just saw her delivering papers on a big wheel. Should I shoot first and then call?
