Authorities on Sunday announced a $100,000 reward in connection with the search for a suspect who was seen on video shooting two Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies in an apparent ambush, CBS Los Angeles reports.

Without provocation, surveillance video shows the suspect approach the patrol car, and open fire then run away.

"In fact, I swore them into office 14 months ago," he said, adding that, "these are real people doing a tough job and it just shows just the dangers of the job in the blink of an eye." Villanueva said the attack occurred in a "cowardly fashion.".
