We're not looking at anything connected. We're not looking at gang problems. We're not looking at retaliation issues. We're looking at all separate incidents.

Our presence here is to be low-key, especially inside the funeral home. This is not about us. This is not a police operation. It's a funeral for a fallen soldier.

The officer approached the residence and was met by an armed gunman. The officer fired on him and struck that man.

We've tried to run down as many people as we can. We've processed the scene as we would if it were a homicide, so that if it does turn out that it was a homicide ... we've not lost anything.

We've had a few problems with fires in the county recently, but we were hoping that the rain would get here before something like this happened. It didn't come in time. After this, I think we will have to consider a burn ban.

We are working to iron out all problems and be ready.
