About this Article

A fugitive ex-Los Angeles police officer was charged Monday with murdering a Riverside officer in a potential death penalty case, but hundreds of tips triggered by a $1 million reward failed to end the manhunt. Christopher Dorner was also charged with the attempted murder of another Riverside officer and two Los Angeles Police Department officers.
