The gunman who set an ambush last summer for police in Baton Rouge, La., had written about killing officers and had searched for officers’ home addresses before the attack, according to a new report released Friday by the local prosecutor.
Three law enforcement officers were killed and three others were wounded on July 17, 2016, near a convenience store close to police headquarters. It happened less than two weeks after Baton Rouge had erupted in protests after the fatal police shooting of Alton Sterling. The events had Baton Rouge on edge, with emotions raw, NPR reports.
