LAPD Chief Charlie Beck announced Saturday his department will provide a new truck to two women injured by officers in pursuit of fugitive ex-cop Christopher Jordan Dorner. Margie Carranza, 47, and her mother, Emma Hernandez, 71, were delivering newspapers in Torrance early Thursday when, without notice, LAPD officers riddled their blue Toyota Tacoma with bullets. Officers had mistakenly thought the truck they were driving belonged to Dorner. Their new truck will be fully loaded with immigration papers, four passports, two bullet proof vests and the business card of the I.N.S. caseworker who will be in charge of the deportation process if they choose to sue the LAPD.
