2 Rochester-area firefighters shot dead in ambush: Police chief says shooter had apparently set a trap for first responders Dec 24th 2012, 18:06 Two firefighters were shot to death and two others were wounded in an apparent trap at the scene of a house fire near Rochester, N.Y., today. One shooter opened fire on the first firefighters to arrive, Webster police Chief Gerald Pickering said at a press conference. "It does appear that it was a trap that was set for first responders." He wouldn't speculate on whether the shooter had any relationship to any members of the police or fire departments that might have prompted the shootings. "There was some pursuit on foot," and the shooter was found outside the home on the north side of the road, Pickering said. No other people were being sought and the area is now safe, he said. Police recovered both a body and the weapon used. He wouldn't describe the weapon. Pickering choked up as he named the two men who had been killed — one of whom was both a police officer and a volunteer firefighter — and the two firefighters who were in hospital. The dead were identified as: Lt. Michael Chiapperini, of Webster police and West Webster Fire Department. Tomasz Kaczowka, a volunteer with the fire department. http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/story/2012/12/24/firefighters-shot-rochester.html
