A gunman who fatally shot two firefighters and critically wounded a third who were responding to a brush fire near Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, on Sunday, was found dead hours later, officials said. The body of 20-year-old Wess Roley was discovered by Idaho SWAT teams on the east side of Canfield Mountain after firefighters came under “active sniper fire” while responding to the fire,

A man who had intentionally set the fire to ambush the crew on Sunday was perched in a sniper position, firing at the firefighters. They took cover behind fire trucks, but two died and a third was wounded during a barrage of gunfire over several hours, authorities said.
