Suspect Identified In Fatal Ambush Attack On Firefighters

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Authorities say two firefighters were killed and another was badly injured after they were ambushed and shot while responding to a wildfire near Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. The gunman was found dead after Sunday’s attack with a weapon nearby. A shelter-in-place order was lifted Sunday night after a tactical response team used cellphone data to narrow the search on a wooded area where they found the suspect’s body with a firearm nearby as flames rapidly approached. Investigators say the gunman acted alone. A law enforcement official has identified the suspect as Wess Roley. The official spoke to The Associated Press on Monday on the condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the investigation.
