(AP) -A man believed to be the disgrun- tled employee accused of open- ing fire on his co-workers at a California limestone quarry was shot and killed by deputies yes- terday, authorities said. Three deputies on routine patrol in a Sunnyvale neigh- borhood encountered the man matching Shareef Allman's description around 7:30 a.m., Santa Clara County Sheriff Lau- rie Smith said. He was crouched behind a vehicle in the driveway of a home. The deputies opened fire after the man "displayed in a threat- ening manner his firearm," Smith said. Investigators believe the man is Allman, but the coroner will have to confirm the identity, she said. "I'm glad that we were able to reach a resolution. It's unfortu- nate that an additional person died, but it's over, and my con- cern is the public safety of the county," Smith said. Authorities did not immedi- ately release the names of depu- ties - two men and one woman - who all had less than five years with the agency. Smith praised their work, saying they "did a great job at the scene." The shooting took place in a residential neighborhood about 5 miles east of the Lehigh Southwest Cement Permanente Plant, where Allman allegedly opened fire during a routine safety meeting a day earlier. Three people died and six were wounded. Authorities believe All- man also shot a woman in an attempted carjacking a couple of hours after fleeing the quarry. yesterday's encounter with law enforcement took place about a block from that carjacking, near Hewlett-Packard Co.'s Cuper- tino campus. Allison Moorwood, who lives near the scene of Thurs- day's shooting, said authorities scoured the area the previous day in search of Allman. "We were in the house lock- down all day yesterday," Moor- wood said. "We've never seen anything like it in our neighbor- hood." "The SWAT stormed in like ninjas, and they took a posi- tion in our front bedroom," said another neighbor, Jenny Mar- tin. According to authorities, All- man became upset Wednesday during the meeting at the quar- ry. He left briefly and returned with a handgun and rifle and started shooting people, Santa Clara County sheriff's Lt. Rick Sung said. About 15 workers were at the meeting. The dead were identified as Manuel Pinon, 48, of Newman, Calif., and John Vallejos, 51 and Mark Munoz, 59, both of San Jose. Six others at the quarry were wounded and taken to hos- pitals, where some were in criti- cal condition, Smith said. Later Wednesday morn- ing, authorities received a 911 call reporting an attempted carjacking by a man match- ing Allman's description. The shooter fled on foot after using a weapon similar to a gun used in the quarry shooting, authori- ties said. The carjacking victim, a Hewlett-Packard contract employee, was in fair condition at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Joy Alexiou said. She said a quarry shoot- ing victim was listed there in good condition Thursday, and another victim was treated and released shortly after the shooting. During the ensuing manhunt for Allman, schools were locked down in Cupertino, home of Apple Inc., and in nearby com- munities. Authorities went door to door with guns drawn and residents were warned to stay indoors.

The president used a White House news conference to attempt to heighten the pressure he's sought to create on the GOP by traveling around the country, into swing states and onto the home turf of key Republican foes including House Speaker John Boehner and Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Giving a bit of ground on his own plan, he endorsed a new pro- posal by Senate Democrats to tax millionaires to pay for his jobs program. "This is not a game," he said. Obama made no apologies for his decision to abandon seeking compromise with Republicans in favor of assailing them, some- times by name. He contended that he'd gone out of his way to try to work with the GOP since becoming president, reaching hard-fought deals to raise the government's borrowing limit and avert a government shut- down, and had gotten nothing in return. "Each time, what we have seen is games playing," the president said. "I am always open to nego- tiations. What is also true is they need to do something." Obama was still at the lectern when Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told Republicans he would permit a test vote as early as late Wednesday on the presi- dent's original measure. There was little doubt it would fail, the outcome Republicans hoped for. The president predicted dire political consequences for his opponents if they don't go along. "I think the American people will run them out of town because they are frustrated and they know we need to do something big, somethingbold." "We will just keep on going at it and hammering away until something gets done," he said. "And I would love nothing more than to see Congress act so aggressively that I can't cam- paign against them as a do-noth- ing Congress." Yet Obama's campaign has not swayed Capitol Hill Republicans who oppose the higher taxes he and other Democrats want to use to pay for his proposal. They accuse Obama of playing "campaigner in chief" instead of working with them. "If the goal is to create jobs, then why are we even talking about tax hikes?" Senate Minor- ity leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Wednesday. Republicans are resolutely opposed to much of Obama's jobs initiative, both for its tax increas- es for wealthier people and small businesses andits repriseofstim- ulus spending on roads, bridges and schools and grants to local governments to pay the salaries of teachers and first responders. They criticize his bill as another version of his $825 billion stimu- lus of 2009, one that this time would rely on raising taxes.
