February 12: Shootout kills deputy; body found in burned cabin might be Dorner's

California Fish and Wildlife wardens said they spotted Dorner driving a purple Nissan down icy roads, apparently tailing two school buses for cover.

Wardens chased the suspect, and a gun battle ensued. Gunfire struck a warden's car.

Dorner crashed, ran and quickly carjacked a pickup truck.

The fugitive fled to a nearby cabin and got into another shootout with San Bernadino County deputies, killing one and wounding another, authorities said.

Police tossed smoke devices inside the cabin, which caught fire and burned for hours.

Late Tuesday night, sheriff's investigators said they found charred human remains among the ashes of the torched cabin.

Authorities said it could be days before forensics experts can identify those remains.
