Fugitive ex-LAPD officer, Christopher Dorner, whose remains were found in a burnt-out cabin after a six-day manhunt, died from a single gunshot wound to the head, authorities say.

Police had launched the manhunt for Christopher Dorner after he killed three people, apparently in revenge for being fired from the LA police in 2008.

Christopher Dorner was cornered near Big Bear Lake and incendiary tear gas was fired in.

Police could not confirm whether the gunshot was self-inflicted.

After a six-hour post-mortem examination, San Bernardino County coroner Kevin Lacy said: “We are not yet able to speak about the manner of death and tell you whether or not it was the result of a self-inflicted wound or another round.

“While we are still assembling the reports and putting it together, the implication seems to be that the wound that took Christopher Dorner’s life was self-inflicted.”

Christopher Dorner had holed up in a flat in Big Bear Lake, a ski resort 80 miles east of Los Angeles, for six days after he killed a couple and a policeman.

San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon told reporters that officers had knocked on the door of the condominium during the manhunt.

“Our deputy knocked on that door and did not get an answer, and in hindsight it’s probably a good thing that he did not answer based on his actions before and after that event,” he said.

When owners arrived to clean the building, Christopher Dorner tied them up and fled in their car, killing a sheriff’s deputy in a shootout and then barricading himself in the remote cabin.

A Swat team fired incendiary tear gas to try to force Christopher Dorner out.

A blaze started and a single gunshot was heard.

Police found a cache of weapons in the cabin, including assault rifles.

Christopher Dorner started his killing spree on February 3 when he shot dead the daughter of a former police captain and her fiancé.

The woman’s father, Randal Quan, had represented Christopher Dorner at a police disciplinary board.

Christopher Dorner was fired in 2008 from the force on a charge of making false statements, after he lodged a complaint against his field training officer, saying she had kicked a suspect during an arrest.

In an online manifesto, Christopher Dorner, who was black, suggested that racism was still rife in the LAPD.
