The two slain firefighters, who have not been identified, died on the way to the Kootenai Health campus in Coeur d’Alene, a hospital spokesperson said. One was from the Coeur D’Alene Fire Department, and the other was from Kootenai County Fire and Rescue, authorities said.

Roley had some sort of interaction with the firefighters he shot and killed when they arrived on the scene of the fire, Norris said, though he provided no details on what occurred. The suspect was known to have expressed interest in becoming a firefighter himself, the sheriff said.
