Raw Story – by Travis GettysAn armed man and woman shouting about a “revolution” opened fire and killed two Las Vegas policemen who were eating lunch in a pizza parlor on Sunday, then fatally shot a civilian in a nearby Wal-Mart store before killing themselves, police said.
The two uniformed patrol officers, later identified as Alyn Beck, 41, and Igor Soldo, 31 — both family men — were ambushed without provocation shortly before 11:30 a.m. local time inside a CiCi’s Pizza shop, authorities said.
One of the two officers managed to return gunfire before the suspects fled to an adjacent Wal-Mart, where they killed a bystander inside the front door, then exchanged gunfire with police who pursued them further into the store, Clark County Sheriff Douglas Gillespie said.
Moments later, the female suspect shot her accomplice to death, then took her own life, Gillespie told reporters at a late-afternoon news conference.
Police have not released much information about the couple, although they’re investigating their possible links to the white supremacist movement and the militia standoff at Cliven Bundy’s Nevada ranch.
A city police spokeswoman, Laura Meltzer, earlier told Reuters the two suspects died after they “engaged in what is being described as a suicide pact.”
She also said the suspects had grabbed the fallen officers’ weapons before fleeing to the Wal-Mart, which Gillespie confirmed.
Meltzer said preliminary information received by police at the scene, showed one or both of the suspects had yelled a statement, “This is a revolution,” as they carried out the initial attack. Gillespie said in the statement this was unconfirmed.
Sources said the shooters draped American Revolution-era Gadsden flags — bearing the slogan “Don’t tread on me” — on the victims’ bodies.
The police spokesman said investigators were also at a loss to explain the attack.
“What precipitated this event we do not know. My officers were simply having lunch when the shooting started,” he said.
He added: “It’s a tragic day, a very difficult day. But we still have a community to police, and we still have a community to protect. We will be out there doing it with our heads held high but an emptiness in our hearts.”
He said no information was being released about the identity of the slain bystander, though the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported the victim was a woman.
Gillespie said the two slain officers had been on routine patrol in the East Las Vegas area when they stopped for lunch.
The Review-Journal, citing an unnamed law enforcement official briefed on the incident,reported that the female suspect approached one policeman from behind and shot him in the head as he was refilling his soft drink, then shot the second several times as tried to draw his pistol.
Beck had been with the police department since August 2001 and was married, with three children. Soldo had been on the force since April 2006 and was married, with a baby.
Police have not identified the suspects, but neighbors said they were in their 20s and had recently moved to the Las Vegas area.
Investigators said they found swastika symbols among the couple’s belongings.
Neighbors said they suspected the couple may have used methamphetamine, and they said the pair talked about conspiracy theories and their plans to kill police officers.
One neighbor said the man, who dressed as Peter Pan to work as a street performer, claimed he had been kicked off Bundy’s ranch, where militia members have gathered to protest federal action against the rancher in a grazing dispute with the government.
But the rancher’s wife denied a link between the armed protesters and the fatal shootings.
“I have not seen or heard anything from the militia and others who have came to our ranch that would, in any way, make me think they had an intent to kill or harm anyone,” Carol Bundy said.
the comments at presstv are good.

it’s also looking more and more like this is either BS or the police are trying to twist it in there favour.
…how convenient…..”found swastikas in their car”….I am so tired of the games played by these people…the government and this organized band of criminals are drooling at the opportunity to establish Martial Law….good luck with that….
Bobby-Joe…
“One neighbor said the man, who dressed as Peter Pan to work as a street performer, claimed he had been kicked off Bundy’s ranch, where militia members have gathered to protest federal action against the rancher in a grazing dispute with the government.”
Bahahahaha!! WOW! Just like Angel said. They will say the people were from the Bundy Ranch to twist this incident. Man, they are so predictable. This is hilarious.
Check out Angel’s June 8, 2014 at 6:53 pm comment on this article from yesterday:

“I’m afraid they will spin this story into an excuse to go after the Ranch again (in addition to attacking Patriots/Militias and promoting Gun Control)
I can see it now, MSM will report that the two shooters were part of the Bundy Ranch Protest.”
It’s like everyone said, this is nothing but retribution for the Bundy incident and the demonizing of the patriots and the militia. Plain and simple.
Hey elite, don’t make it too obvious or anything.
“One neighbor said the man, who dressed as Peter Pan to work as a street performer, claimed he had been kicked off Bundy’s ranch, where militia members have gathered to protest federal action against the rancher in a grazing dispute with the government.”
ROLMFAO!! Dressed like Peter Pan? And I’m sure the woman that was with him was dressed like Tinkerbell, right?
OMG.. 🙄 Is this the best they can come up with? Maybe it was a Homosexual Peter Pan street performer since the homos are supposedly holding a rally at Disneyworld.
Unfrigginbelievable…..
Hey guys, check it out:
The Waco Massacre was a 50 day siege.
The Bundy Ranch standoff started on April 19, 2014. I stated around the beginning of last month that if it was to be like a Waco Massacre, that the Feds would do something in 50 days to discredit the militia and the Bundys.
Well, exactly 50 days from April 19, 2014 is JUNE 8, 2014. The exact same day as this incident. Imagine that!
White supremacist group from Bundy Ranch is who they are targeting now? Gotta make it racial, now don’t we, MSM?
I guess the MSM and the elite forgot about those black militia members who were on the MSM saying that they were willing to protect the Bundys with their lives.
Hahaha!! So much for their White Supremacist/race angle.
The elite are running out of ideas and are running out of steam. You know, at this rate, I’m thinking the elite are just going to beat themselves up without us having to do anything. lol
Hey NC, I think I saw the boogy man at the Bundy ranch. He was playing cards with Frankenstein and Putin! 🙂
Hahaha!! He must have been drunk.
I hate these kind of statement
“The two uniformed patrol officers, later identified as Alyn Beck, 41, and Igor Soldo, 31 — both family men — were ambushed without provocation shortly before 11:30 a.m. local time inside a CiCi’s Pizza shop, authorities said. ”
family men? SO
ambushed? They where sitting having lunch. hardly an ‘ambush’
without provocation? Like cops are these squeaky clean pillars of morality.
get some GMO riddled cici’s pizza. perhaps the revolution was gmo food labeling…
By the way, where are the pictures? Where are the blood? Where are the bodies? Where is all of the Walmart camera footage, since we all know that Walmart has cameras at every angle on top of their buildings and parking lot lamp poles? Did the cameras conveniently malfunction again? I’m sure Mark Schumacher will be all over that one. lol
Very good points!! It never pays to get too emotional when trying to sort the truth out of an event like this (speaking for myself). More disinformation for the sheeple to gobble up!
New department policy: Officers are not allowed to eat at a pizza parlor during the revolution and/or without SWAT backup……..
Santa Barbara, Seattle, Las Wages, where’s the next stop for the Elite Ruled Government + Media Whore + Gun Grabbers Circus Tour! Lol Who else could have directed such a show??
