Sheriff: California officer’s killer is in the U.S. illegally

So here’s the dark irony through and through. 

  • The alleged killer is in the US illegally from Mexico
  • The police officer was a legal immigrant from Fiji
  • The police were not allowed to report the illegal alien to ICE because of the sanctuary city laws

At some point, Americans are going to grab their pitchforks and start driving out the progressive politicians who foisted this insanity upon us. Unfortunately, it will take more innocent lives before we get there. 

A gunman who killed a California police officer during a traffic stop over possible drunken driving is in the United States illegally, authorities said Thursday, as a manhunt for the attacker stretched into a second day. 

Stanislaus County Sheriff Adam Christianson said authorities identified but won’t yet name the man who killed Cpl. Ronil Singh of the small-town Newman Police Department. Authorities said they believe he’s still in the area some 100 miles southeast of San Francisco and is armed and dangerous. 

“This suspect … is in our country illegally. He doesn’t belong here. He is a criminal,” Christianson, whose agency is leading the investigation, told reporters. 

Newman Police Chief Randy Richardson fought back tears as he described Singh, a 33-year-old native of Fiji with a newborn son, as an “American patriot.” 

“He came to America with one purpose, and that was to serve this country,” Richardson said.

Singh joined the Newman police force in 2011. Richardson said that his department of 12 is grieving Singh, and other agencies are lending a hand. 

“He was living the American dream,” said Stanislaus County sheriff’s Deputy Royjinder Singh, who is not related to the slain officer but knew him. “He loved camping, loved hunting, loved fishing, loved his family.”
