Related: About this forumWhite supremacist killed in shootout with San Luis Obispo County deputy (CA)
A man killed by sheriffs deputies after he shot and wounded a deputy in central California has been identified as a convicted felon and white supremacist gang member.
Officials say the man opened fire on deputies while hiding behind bushes after he ran from his vehicle in an unincorporated area just outside Templeton, about 5 miles south of Paso Robles.
San Luis Obispo County officials say the vehicle was spotted around 10:21 a.m. on a 101 Freeway frontage road by a deputy, who recognized it as belonging to a wanted felon. When the man pulled over, he fled on foot.
...
However, the Sheriffs Office said he is a convicted felon with an outstanding felony warrant, an extensive history of weapons charges and is a white supremacist gang member.
