Parolee Kills CA Police Officer : Two police officers were shot, one fatally, Monday by a gang member in Whittier, CA. Stephanie Baer of the LA Daily News reports that when officers responded to a traffic accident and approached one of the vehicles involved, which they identified as stolen, the driver opened fire killing officer Kieth Boyer and wounding officer Patrick Hazell. The suspect, a known gang member who was injured in the shootout, was released from prison about a week ago. He is also suspected of murdering his cousin earlier on Monday. Whittier Police Chief Jeff Piper told reporters that the suspect was released from prison early under AB 109, a 2011 law signed by the Governor which reduced sentences for habitual felons, and Proposition 47, a 2014 ballot measure which converted drug and theft felonies into misdemeanors. "We need to wake up. Enough is enough. You're passing these propositions, you're creating these laws....it's not good for our community, it's not good for our officers. You have no idea how it's changed in the last four years. We have the statistics to show it," said the Chief. The suspect's name has not be released.
