The hunt is on in California for rogue former policeman Christopher Dorner. Authorities say the fugitive is believed to have broken into a home, tied up a couple and stole their pickup truck in the San Bernardino mountains northeast of Los Angeles. A sheriffs spokeswoman says two deputies were hit while exchanging gunfire with suspect believed to be Dorner. Dorner is accused of targeting law enforcement officers and their families in three revenge-driven killings.
