I try not to speculate, It`s the MO that I see.
A massive manhunt then got underway and about two hours later, the suspect was located at an apartment in East Oakland, not far from the initial shooting. Acting police chief Howard Jordan told reporters police were tipped off that the suspect was in a nearby apartment. Officers and the SWAT team moved in and two other police officers were shot by the suspect.
All four police died this evening at Highland hospital where hundreds of fellow police officers have gathered. The suspect was killed. None of the officers or the dead assailant have been identified. Oakland police will hold a news briefing later tonight at police headquarters with more details.

We don’t know because we haven’t been told. Speculation at this point is futile.
What we do know is that four cops are dead, as is the perp. We should be focusing on the tragedy this presents for the families and friends of all parties concerned.
Maybe the perp was an illegal, maybe a muslim, maybe it was somebody’s granny running amuck. Or maybe it was an ex-cop — we don’t know, and speculation isn’t helpful at this point.
I agree with kjc1 — best to drop that line of enquiry until we are told more.
Just my $0.02 worth.
