Joe Budden has a sit down with Sway and expresses his motives behind confronting Consequence at Hot 97 radio station. This all started when Consequence went off on a verbal tirade in his interview with the Breakfast Club.
Below is the video of the confrontation they’re referring to.
In something straight out of a movie, Christopher Dorner met his end at the hands of San Bernardino Sheriffs and U.S. Marshall’s in Big Bear. The manhunt lead police to a remote cabin on the mountain where Dorner took refuge after eluding Fish and Wildlife officers after a gun fight. Tear gas was fired into the cabin and its unclear at this point if this is what caused the cabin to become engulfed in flames. However, San Bernardino police did confirm the tear gas used is known for being highly flammable. Still, police deny intentionally setting the cabin on fire. Earlier reports indicated that Dorner attempted to exit out the back of the cabin during his last stand but was aggressively pushed back into the home. As Sheriff’s and SWAT members approached the cabin it was reported a single shot was heard and it is now been confirmed the charred remains recovered on site is what’s left of Christopher Dorner.

UPDATE 2/13/13: KCAL 9 News aired footage yesterday with audio of the gun fight as it was happening. An interesting fact to point out is the Big Bear police radio feed was disconnected yesterday from people looking to hit the internet and listen in. However, here are two videos with clear enough audio that you can hear officers yelling to burn the cabin they believed Christopher Dorner was held up in. Take a listen before the videos mysteriously disappear most likely soon. “Burn it down, get the gas!”
