Christopher Dorner in gun battle with authorities, source says

One of the firefighters was raised in that structure, now they are asking if the ceiling for the basement is wood or concrete.

Anyone know what type of devices were used to set the fire?

Someone mentioned "burners" earlier but Google isn't helping with that term...

I'm still confused here. If they assume he is dead.. why burn the thing to the ground like this? That just seems a strange way to deal with one single man who probably already shot himself to avoid burning to death.

Any moment Dorner is either going to come out of the cabin, or he is dead. I just lost the feed to the Radio...damn

WHAT!? It's not like it is in the movies?

3d scan could have allowed him to be taken down. I just don't understand the "sherriff" being shot in Droner's reign of fire when he is like the rookie on scene comparable to the other alphabet agencies I sight I would think.

Always has to end WACO style. This morning they were going to open another inquest (he knew it was bait) now fire.

I say it was drug enduced "snap" for gun control or the fact that he was former military was "called to action" for gun control.

Not positive but remember hearing that allowing a body to burn preserves fingerprints, where as if they use water to put the fire out before body is burned, the water + heat could make the finger prints useless.

Wow.. totally just lost the radio feed. Like the entire site is down now.

Dorner does have those oxygen tanks, if he has those on him he may still be alive if he can stay away from the heat. Most people die in fires from the smoke, not the fire.

Hide any evidence.
I wouldn't be surprised if they let it burn all the way.

Damn, my feed just cut out while the dispatcher said something about the ceiling....
2nd.

Same - scanner site down. Big Bear scanner down as well.

Feed's gone for me too.

Convenient timing for the feeds to drop.
