Oliver Helbig/Getty ImagesRIVERSIDE COUNTY, Calif. — A California deputy was fatally shot during a traffic stop by a man who authorities said should have been incarcerated under the state's"three strikes" sentencing law but instead was out on bond.
The suspect was identified as William Shea McKay, a convicted felon who has an"extensive violent past," Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco said during a news conference Thursday night, citing multiple assaults with deadly weapons and the stabbing of a California Highway Patrol canine. A spokesperson for the San Bernardino Superior Court, which adjudicated the case, told ABC News it does not plan to issue a statement on the case at this time.
It was unclear what exchange Cordero and McKay had prior to the shooting, Bianco said, adding that investigators plan to review body-worn camera footage.
