Los Angeles: A California sheriff’s deputy was shot in the head but survived an ambush by a gunman intent on harming or killing police and authorities said on Wednesday they were investigating whether there was a connection to two recent deadly attacks on officers.
After wounding the San Luis Obispo County deputy in the small city of Paso Robles, police believe the shooter killed a transient and then eluded an intense manhunt. Police sought the public’s help and released photos from surveillance video showing the suspect a young dark-haired, bearded man. (AP)
