Oh no that's absolutely horrible news!!

My wife was coming up the hill around 9pm, turned back at green valley, the only signs below said traffic accident not road closer!
Cal Trans guy told my wife that a CHP officer was killed in a shooting

So, is this "accident" part of the shooting investigation too? Crazy night regardless...
