Apparently they didn't know that he was the one who shot the cops as he was arrested for other crimes that he had committed. Supposedly he shot the cops as revenge for a black "security guard" that was killed by the police a few months back.
Officials announced the charges against Deonte Lee Murray at a Wednesday news conference. He was arrested Sept. 15 after a stakeout, car chase, and search in Lynwood that Sheriff Alex Villanueva initially said was unrelated to the deputy attack case.
