Deputy wounded in gunbattle with ex-cop dies

BIG BEAR, Calif. — San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon says one of two deputies wounded in a gunbattle with a man believed to be a fugitive ex-LA cop has died.

The gunbattle broke out in the San Bernardino Mountains east of Los Angeles early Tuesday afternoon.

The area had been searched since fired Los Angeles police officer Christopher Dorner’s pickup truck was found burned out near the Big Bear lake ski resort on Thursday.
