They were wrong on both counts, however, and two of the occupants are in the hospital with unspecified injuries.

Ex-cop Christopher Jordan Dorner is also suspected in a double homicide over the weekend, and police say he wrote a rambling manifesto in which he promised to hunt down police officers, reports the AP. "We're asking our officers to be extraordinarily cautious just as we're asking the public to be extraordinarily cautious with this guy," says a police official. "He's already demonstrated he has a propensity for shooting innocent people." Click for more.
