CHP Officer Shot Down in Woodland

Yesterday, a CHP Officer was shot down in Woodland, which is a city that I go to hang out with somewhat frequently. What saddens me is that he was suddenly shot by the driver during a routine traffic stop. Even more gruesome was that a citizen called in the shooting from the fallen officer's car.
His wife must be simply distraught.
I hate senseless violence like this. I thought I just saw a news item on television that the suspect who committed this crime was apprehended...and sure enough, he was apprehended in Rocklin.
The suspect is a 20 year old male. Twenty years old, and you want to ruin your life by shooting a CHP officer.
There are probably a number of CHP officers who are shaken up by this, and a number of CHP officers' spouses who are on edge, wondering if the next car the officer pulls over is going to be another lunatic with a gun.
