Idaho Suspect Identified After Firefighter Ambush Kills Two
Authorities have identified Wess Roley, a 20-year-old man with ties to Bonner County, Idaho, as the suspect in the deadly ambush that killed two firefighters and injured another on Canfield Mountain. The attack occurred while firefighters were responding to a brush fire, which officials believe was deliberately set to lure responders to the location. Law enforcement officers also came under fire upon arrival and engaged with the suspect, who was later found dead with a firearm on the mountain; investigators believe he died by suicide, though details remain unclear. The wildfire has since expanded to 26 acres, and the motive behind the sniper-style attack remains unknown as officials continue their investigation. The local community is mourning the loss of the firefighters, and authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward. The firefighters killed have not yet been publicly identified.
