Police: Remains May Be Dorner’s

Body found in burned-out cabin after standoff.

San Bernardino, California, police said early Wednesday that they are working to confirm the identity of the remains found in the burned-out cabin where fugitive Richard Dorner was believed to be holed up. Dorner, a former Los Angeles cop, had terrorized Southern California for the past week since he went missing after killing an engaged couple and a police officer. On Tuesday, two maids in the Big Bear area stumbled across a man resembling Dorner, and he then allegedly tied them up, took a car from the residence, and attempted to flee. Police recognized him, leading to a shootout and resulting in the death of one officer and wounding of another. The fugitive stayed in the cabin, and it went up in flames as officers surrounded it.
