So imagine a network tv crew following you along for the first date. Theyre good sports. Thats for sure. Sad news for lady gaga. Millions of her little monsters are hearing shes making a big announcement. As she struggles with a serious injury. Well tell you whats wrong later on in the skinny. Before all of that, were hearing from the Southern California couple who came face to face with that suspected cop killer, Christopher Dorner. It was a terrifying few moments for karen and jim reynolds who say they were certain they would be killed. But it didnt turn out that way. Heres abcs brad wheelis with the latest. We believe that this investigation is over at this point. Reporter this is where the massive manhunt for excop Christopher Dorner came to an end. I cannot absolutely, positively confirm its him. Reporter detectives are waiting for remember sics on the charred body they found in the cabin. But the manhunt is over. The married couple came been dorner in one of their cabins. They said he tied them up and stole their car. He talked to us trying to calm us down and saying very frequently he would not kill us. But i dont have a problem with you. I just want to clear my name. Reporter pursued by police, dorner ditched that car and carjacked another. Dorner jumped out of the snow at me, gun drawn. Big long rifle. He pointed his gun at me and said i dont want to hurt you. Reporter dorner got into a shootout with two fish and game wardens, hitting their vehicle but not them. Police say dorner did shoot two other deputies tuesday, one died. Dorner then fled on foot to a cabin where an intense gun fight ensued. Then smoke, flames and the cabin burned down. In riverside, an emotional farewell to officer michael crane. A husband and father of two. Dorner is accused of gunning him down last thursday. Every day got better. Every day we renewed our love, and i knew how much he loved me. Reporter the Sheriffs Department identified its deputy killed by gunfire as 35yearold jeremiah mackay. He was married with a 7monthold daughter and 4monthold son. Brad wheelis, abc news, los angeles. So now the emotion coming out after we had these horrific days looking for him. Going back to the couple held hostage. Apparently he said he had been watching the couple for a couple of days and noticed they were hardworking people. Im assuming that had something to do with why he didnt want to hurt him. But it was all about clearing his name according to them. The psychology of a killer is fascinating. That he would have this violent streak but then showed mercy on this couple that walked in on him that he could have clearly ratted him out and he could have killed them. He just chose to tie them up, take their car and go on. Thats fascinating to me. Again, we talked about this yesterday. Dorner was not far from he was right under their nose. After we get passed some of the emotion and the relief this guy has been caught, there are some questions i think about the police work that this guy apparently was in that cabin since friday they think, the door was open, he wasnt far from where police were. From where the media was. Its kind of like, how did you all not check this cabin days ago and allow all this fear to continue for almost a week . Hiding in plain sight. You have to think that this man knew their strategies. So this is one of the cabins cleared early on and then he went in there. At this point, who knows . Lots of questions but gratitude that its over. Its over finally. Yes. And the other big story, tug boats are hauling that crippled cruise ship to mobile, alabama where it should arrive later today.
