Suspect Arrested In Compton Ambush Shooting Of 2 LA Deputies
LINK
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) – A man has been charged in connection with the ambush shooting of two Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies earlier this month in Compton.
Sheriff Alex Villanueva and L.A. County District Attorney Jackie Lacey made the announcement at a news conference Wednesday morning at LASD headquarters in downtown L.A.
Deonte Lee Murray, 36, has been charged on two counts of attempted murder. Murray was arrested two weeks ago in connection with an unrelated carjacking and shooting which had occurred on Sept. 1, Lacey said. Forensic evidence then linked him to the shooting of the two deputies.
A ghost gun used in the shooting of the deputies was recovered by investigators, sheriff’s Capt. Kent Wegener told reporters.
Murray also fled the scene of the deputies’ shooting in a black Mercedes Benz sedan, the same vehicle which Murray had carjacked.
On the evening of Sept. 12, two sheriff’s deputies who were shot in an unprovoked ambush while sitting in their patrol car in Compton.
The deputies were in their patrol vehicle parked outside the Metro Compton Blue Line station at Willowbrook Avenue and Elm Street when a lone suspect approached the front passenger side of the car and opened fire, wounding them both.
The deputies, a 31-year-old mother and her 24-year-old male partner, were rushed to St. Francis Medical Center in critical condition. Both survived and have since been released from the hospital.
Murray was arrested on Sept. 15, three days after the deputies’ shooting, in connection with the carjacking, which had occurred on Sept. 1, also in Compton. In that carjacking, Murray shot a man in the leg and stole his Mercedes, Wegener disclosed.
On Sept. 17, Murray was charged with one count each of carjacking, second-degree robbery and assault with a semiautomatic firearm. He has since been charged with one count of attempted murder in connection with the carjacking.
Murray faces a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted as charged.
Thanks to private donations, the reward for information leading to an arrest in the deputies’ shooting was estimated at over $700,000.
SIAP.
Promising news. The shooter of the two police officers may finally see justice.

Unfortunately, that is what it is looking like. I just don't understand why he would do this. The hate, the anger, the lies that he believed about Black Lives Matter.

This will be the first white kid that I have seen with the name Deonte.

We need a mugshot with the measurement behind it so as to see how much over 4' he is.
