Here's video of police shouting "burn that motherfucker" and "burn him out" as Dorner was trapped.

324. Is there any evidence at all to suggest that there was anyone else in the cabin?

My understanding is that Dorner spent several days in a cabin that he broke into and eventually left on Tuesday after tying up a pair of cleaning women who came to the cabin. He stole a car at that cabin and after crashing that vehicle, he carjacked a pickup truck and took off, almost immediately engaging in a gunfight with warden's that encountered the truck. He then abandoned the truck and broke into another cabin. When deputies approached that cabin, he shot and killed one and wounded another. The owner of the cabin indicated that they knew of no reason that anyone would have been in the cabin at the time this was going down. The guy that was carjacked didn't see anyone with Dorner nor did the wardens that engaged in a gunfight with him. So to the extent some have speculated that he might have had a hostage, where did that hostage come from?

There were eyewitnesses to a lot of his movements leading up to his holing up in that cabin and none indicate that anyone else was there.

As for the idea that it might have been a homeless person, that's just grasping at straws. I've seen nothing to suggest that the cabin was routinely broken into by homeless persons. Moreover, there was one main cabin (the one Dorner was in) and five smaller cabins; its far more likely that a homeless person, hoping simply to get out of the elements, would pick one of the smaller cabins out back to break into rather than the main cabin where someone was more likely to show up.

In short, if there is any reasonable basis for suspecting that anyone else was in that cabin, I have yet to see it.
