A gunman “ambushed” a Los Angeles county sheriff’s department deputy in his patrol car Saturday night, shooting him to death in a particularly brazen attack, authorities said.
The deputy, Ryan Clinkunbroomer, was found unconscious in his vehicle near the intersection of Sierra Highway and Avenue Q in Palmdale, California. A passerby discovered the mortally wounded deputy and then alerted authorities.
Clinkunbroomer died after being taken to an area hospital, the Associated Press reported. “Despite the medical staff’s best efforts to save our deputy’s life, regrettably he succumbed to his injuries,” sheriff Robert Luna said, according to the AP.
Clinkunbroomer became engaged only four days before he was slain. His survivors include his betrothed, his parents and his grandparents.
