California authorities on Thursday revealed that the suspect in the fatal
police officer shooting that occurred during a traffic stop earlier this
week is in the U.S. illegally.

The unidentified man allegedly behind the slaying of Newman police Cpl.
Ronil Singh, 33, “is considered armed and dangerous,” Stanislaus County
Sheriff Adam Christianson said during a news conference on Thursday
afternoon, vowing that the manhunt would “relentlessly continue.”

“This suspect … is in our country illegally. He doesn’t belong here. He is
a criminal. We will find him, we will arrest him, we will bring him to
justice,” Christianson said.

Singh was shot and killed during a traffic stop just before 1 a.m.
Wednesday in Newman, about 100 miles southeast of San Francisco, according
to police.

The suspect was stopped by Singh for a DUI investigation before engaging
in a gunfight with the officer, during which Singh tried to defend
himself, Christianson said.

Singh had called in the traffic stop and reported "shots fired" over his
radio a few minutes later, sheriff's officials previously said. The
suspect fled when backup officers arrived to assist Singh, who was then
rushed to a hospital. He later died from his gunshot wounds, the
department said.

Surveillance photos released of the suspect showed him inside the Newman
Food Store shortly before the fatal attack. Police also located the truck
the suspect is believed to have driven.

Authorities urged the suspect, still thought to be in the vicinity, to
turn himself in.

“We strongly encourage him to surrender himself peacefully so we can bring
closure to this senseless act of violence,” Christianson said. He added
that he’s hopeful law enforcement “may have him in custody sooner than
later.”

Singh was a native of Fiji and left behind a wife and 5-month-old son. The
officer, who joined the force in the summer of 2011, was remembered fondly
by the Newman police chief, who said Singh “truly loved what he did.”

“He came to this country with one purpose, and that was to serve this
country,” Chief Randy Richardson said, declaring that “a coward took his
life.”

Richardson pleaded for help in apprehending the suspect and urged him to
surrender.

“We need closure. His family needs closure,” Richardson said.

President Trump addressed the manhunt on Twitter on Thursday, in
connection with his persistent calls for a wall at the southern border
with Mexico.

There is right now a full scale manhunt going on in California for an
illegal immigrant accused of shooting and killing a police officer during
a traffic stop. Time to get tough on Border Security. Build the Wall!

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.

ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.

Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.

Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
