(CNN)At least seven officers were injured and at least three of them are feared dead in a shooting in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, a source with knowledge of the investigation told CNN.
Police received a call of "suspicious person walking down Airline Highway with an assault rifle," the source said. When police arrived, the man opened fire.
The remaining officers are hospitalized in critical condition, the source said.
Kip Holden, the mayor-president of East Baton Rouge Parish, said authorities were still trying to get a handle on the situation, but added, "The count is three officers dead possibly."
The victims may include police officers and sheriff's deputies.
"There is still an active scene. They are investigating," he said. "Right now we are trying to get our arms around everything."
The shooter is believed to be down as well, Holden said.
"Everything is moving fast and I have not been able to verify everything," he said.

News keeps mentioning BLM, but you're right it could be any race I suppose.
CNN just said one suspect was shot dead and two more are at large
We haven't even heard if Sterling had a gun, and it's been weeks now. It seems they're trying to keep certain things under wraps to prevent criticism.
Yes he had a gun. It was visible sticking out of his pocket when watching the video. Do a search.
They may have become radicalized 10 minutes before the attack. Radical Muslim Terrorists.
Shooter was a former Nation of Islam member:

US stuff, France stuff, what a shit show the last few weeks.
Play it cool everyone! Just relax and sit back and don't get involved in things that will get you shot!

Seems to me that's an important fact, yet I haven't heard anything about it in the mainstream media. Is it because it doesn't play into their narrative?
I also haven't heard the race of the cop killer from earlier today. Not that I find that relevant, I just find it's absence is akin to the avoidance of mentioning Sterling's gun.
But when it's a white cop shooting a black man, the media loses it's collective mind!
I think the US has a big problem now. It will be difficult for the escalating tension and violence between cops and the black community to abate when you have the media cranking up the thermostat.
