The man and woman suspected in SundayÂ’s Las Vegas shopping center attack that left two police officers and a shopper dead often talked about killing officers and didnÂ’t believe in the government, a neighbor says.
“They always talked about murdering cops,” neighbor Krista Koch told*ABC affiliate KTNV-TV.
"They were going to kill as many officers as they can, and then they were going to do away with themselves."
Investigators searched an apartment overnight believed to be related to the shooting, trying to uncover clues about the midday attack. Police are looking into the coupleÂ’s*links to the white supremacy*movement after finding swastika symbols during their initial investigation, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
The first shots were fired at 11:22 a.m. Sunday – the start of a “revolution,” the pair reportedly told witnesses. Investigators say the man and woman, armed with guns and ammunition, walked into a CiCi’s Pizza Restaurant, where they opened fire on officers Alyn Beck, 41, and Igor Soldo, 31.
Police say one officer fired back, but both died from their injuries.
