Wildlife officials play surprise role in tracking down Dorner

While law enforcement officials scoured the hillsides above Big Bear on Tuesday for murder suspect Christopher Dorner, wardens from California's Department of Fish and Wildlife were called in to patrol the rugged terrain of Highway 38.

It was on that highway that the officers first encountered Dorner, engaging the former cop in a white-knuckle chase involving two commandeered vehicles. The pursuit culminated in what officials described as a wild shootout between Dorner and a state game warden.

The actions by alert wildlife officers may have set in motion Dorner's last stand — in a snowbound cabin, surrounded by police. The cabin burned to the ground and there were conflicting reports over whether a body had been found inside.

Thatz a great price.

When I think .308 in AR I’m thinking bolt carrier, not that annoying spring, that zings past my ear when shooting.

A .308 seems to be about $1200 in standard configjratiin but, is $2500+ + in bolt style.

Thnx for the info.

Great idea!

The internal combustion engine creates as many as 12,000 and 40.000 explosions each revolution in under one minute.

Thatz dangerous and we need reasonable restrictions on these small explosiins so less of our folk, Americans, can feel safer as they go about their daily lives.

Anyone who doen’t agree ought to be ashamed for their extreme views.

Dorner apparently needed to have spent more time honing his vehicle handling skillz.

Guess the Military and the LAPD didn’t train him for driving on snow covered roads.

Pof 308, not AR-15. California Fish and Wildlife recently bought them to replace whatever rifle they were using before. The article makes it sound like they got a few hours training on how to fire a rifle and were then sent on their way.
