"Additionally, bringing the public focus on him at that point of the investigation may have influenced the pending witness interviews and further compromised the mission of solving the attempted murder of the deputies," he said. "As the investigation progressed, we gathered sufficient evidence to substantiate not only the arrest but the filing of criminal charges in this case.''

As the two deputies were being treated at the hospital, condolences came in from all over the world. So did tips. Investigators say they were able to tie the vehicle the suspect fled in to a carjacking two weeks prior.

When they tried to stop the suspect in the carjacking he fled, throwing a gun out the window. Forensics was then able to link that gun to the deputy-involved shooting.

It appears that he carried out the carjacking on 9/1, prior to the cop shooting, with a long gun.

Apparently, they were pursuing him after the 9/12 cop shooting in the carjacked Benz when he tossed the cop shooting weapon.  Weapon recovered and connected to the cop shooting.

LOS ANGELES (NEXSTAR) — Billionaire investor Mark Cuban has donated $50,000 to each of the two Los Angeles County deputies wounded in a brazen ambush-style attack captured on camera last month.

Cuban, who also owns the Dallas Mavericks, confirmed the donations to Fox News. He said the money will come from his Fallen Patriot Fund. The initiative was designed to help the families of U.S. military members who were killed or wounded during the conflict in Iraq.
