San Diego August 7, 2011
The gunman who allegedly fatally wounded a police officer over the weekend, left a suicide note before going on a shooting spree, officials have said.
San Diego-based officer Jeremy Henwood was pulling away from traffic lights on Saturday when Dejon Marquee White's car pulled up alongside him and he unloaded his shotgun.
Following the unprovoked attack, police later cornered the armed 23-year-old and killed him. After searching his apartment, they found a two-page suicide note.
Sitting alone in his car the 36-year-old policeman was allegedly attacked by White, and died in hospital yesterday.
Investigators have said that they can determine no motive for the shooting of the police officer.
Mr Henwood, who leaves behind his parents, a brother and a sister, was also a captain in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and had recently returned from a one-year deployment to Afghanistan.
'Jeremy is a dedicated public servant - he served his country in the military and he served this great city in the San Diego police department,' said police chief William Landsdowne, who led the tributes, yesterday.
'He also believed that he was a protector and he had a responsibility to help others. He was a great asset to the San Diego police department.
'I could tell you that this was a senseless killing - this was an assassination.'
