CALIFORNIA - Massive Manhunt Saga

"Manhunt Continues for Fugitive Cop Wanted for Murder in California" PBS Newshour 2/11/2013

Excerpt

RAY SUAREZ (Newshour):  And we turn to the search for the ex-officer wanted in multiple killings in California.  Authorities have been given hundreds of tips for the suspect, who is still at large.  But he was charged today with the murder of a Riverside police officer and the attempted murder of other officers.

Those charges could bring the death penalty.  The manhunt was in its fifth day, as law enforcement agencies across Southern California kept looking for Christopher Dorner.  Authorities said they're hoping a $1 million dollar reward will yield new leads on Dorner's whereabouts.

MAYOR ANTONIO VILLARAIGOSA, (D) Los Angeles:  Our dedication to catching this killer remains steadfast.

RAY SUAREZ:  Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa announced the reward yesterday.
