A crazed former LA cop with a grudge against his fellow officers has gone on a killing spree after writing a bizarre Facebook manifesto in which he denounced his enemies — but also proclaimed his love of Tim Tebow, “The Hangover” and “Shark Week.”
Christopher Dorner, 33, is believed to have shot three cops yesterday, killing one, days after he allegedly shot and killed the daughter of a fellow cop and her fiancé over the weekend.
Dorner was still at large last night after his pickup truck was found burnt out in Big Bear, Calif., about 80 miles east of where the rampage started in Irvine.

SNAPPED: Police inspect an LAPD cruiser shot yesterday during a gunfight with a man believed to have been ex-cop Christopher Dorner (left), who was at large last night after allegedly going on a killing spree.
He began his spree after posting a screed online in which he named targets for execution and bragged about how tough he is.
“The Violence of action will be HIGH . . . Whatever pre-planned responses you have established for a scenario like me, shelve it,” the rant reads.
The maniacal manifesto also had some encouraging words for Jets quarterback Tim Tebow.
“Tebow, I really wanted to see you take charge of an offense again and the game. You are not a good QB by today’s standards, but you are a great football player who knows how to lead a team and WIN,” he wrote. “You will be ‘Tebowing’ when you reach your next team. I have faith in you. Get out of that circus they call the Jets.”
He also made some pop-culture critiques.
“It’s kind of sad I won’t be around to view and enjoy The Hangover III. What an awesome trilogy,” he mused.
He added, “Damn, gonna miss shark week.”
Ironically, he also ripped the head of the NRA, Wayne LaPierre, calling him a “vile and inhumane piece of s--t.”
The madman also sent a note to CNN journalist Anderson Cooper referring to former NYPD and LAPD Commissioner Bill Bratton.
Cooper said last night that the note came with a bullet-hole-ridden coin. It arrived at his office earlier this month. The packaging read, “Thanks, but no thanks Will Bratton.”
Bratton oversaw the LAPD during Dorner’s tenure.
Dorner is wanted for slaying Monica Quan and her fiancé, Keith Lawrence, on Sunday in Irvine, authorities said.
Quan was the daughter of a former police captain who represented Dorner in a disciplinary hearing, cops said. Dorner was axed from the force in 2008 for making false statements.
And yesterday, cops guarding one of his targets chased a car they believed was being driven by Dorner. One cop was grazed in an exchange of gunfire.
Later, a driver, again thought to be Dorner, ambushed two Riverside cops in a car. One was shot dead, another wounded.
During the manhunt, cops reportedly shot two bystanders.
In his Web rant, Dorner said the rampage was a “necessary evil” to “reclaim my name.”
He also weighed in on his favorite personalities:
ï®* To “Curb Your Enthusiasm” creator Larry David: “I agree. 72-82 degrees is way too hot in a residence. 68 degrees is perfect.”
* “Gov. Chris Christie. What can I say? You’re the only person I would like to see in the White House in 2016 other than Hillary.”
ï®* “Charlie Sheen, you’re effin awesome.”
