Breakups, prison time and a reference to white supremacy: Arnold cop shooter shared his life online
Chad Klahs openly documented his troubled life for all of his Facebook friends to see.
He posted about breakups, prison time, and meetings with a parole officer. He referenced a drug overdose and white supremacy.
On Nov. 3, his final word on one account, he posted an animated image that shows him breaking up into tiny pieces and dissolving. "This is hour I feel," he wrote, with a typo.
Two friends replied, asking if he was OK. No response.
Klahs, arrested Tuesday for burglary, killed himself in the back of a police SUV after shooting and critically wounding an Arnold police officer. He had been searched and police had found one gun he had taken in a burglary, but he apparently had a second weapon he was able to use to shoot the officer and then himself as the officer pulled up to the police department.
