Assistant Sheriff: 2 Suspects Left Swastika, ‘Don’t Tread On Me’ Flag On Dead Vegas Officers

Two suspects in the shooting deaths of two Police officers had ‘ideology along the lines of militia and white supremacists’ and left swastika, ‘Don’t tread on me’ flag on the dead Vegas officers, Assistant Sheriff Kevin McMahill said Tuesday.

Police are also looking into into whether the two suspects had been at Cliven Bundy’s Nevada ranch during a standoff earlier this year.

McMahill says the shootings on Sunday at a pizza restaurant and Wal-Mart were an “isolated act.”

Police say a shopper armed with a concealed weapon inside a Las Vegas Wal-Mart confronted an armed man who entered the store with his wife moments after the couple killed two officers in a nearby restaurant.

Assistant Sheriff Kevin McMahill said Monday that 31-year-old Joseph Wilcox of Las Vegas was in the checkout line when he saw Jerad Miller fire a shot and went to confront him.

Miller’s wife, Amanda, pulled out a gun and shot Wilcox in the rib area. He collapsed and died.

McMahill says Wilcox wasn’t able to fire any shots.

Police say the Millers exchanged gunfire with officers inside the Wal-Mart before Amanda Miller shot her husband and then herself.
