Three parties will split the $1 million reward offered during the manhunt for Christopher Dorner, with most of it going to a couple tied up by the rogue ex-cop before his final shootout with authorities, Los Angeles police said Tuesday.
The LAPD posted a document on its website Tuesday explaining the payout process, saying, 80 percent of it will go to the couple, James and Karen Reynolds, 15 percent to a man who found Dorner's burning truck in the Big Bear area where he was eventually discovered, and 5 percent to a tow-truck driver who spotted Dorner at a Corona gas station earlier in the manhunt.

Dorner had vowed warfare on Los Angeles Police Department officers and their families for what he called an unfair firing. He killed four people, including two law enforcement officers, during his nearly one-week run from authorities that ended with his death on Feb. 12.
Multiple parties came forward to claim they provided the key tip that ultimately led Dorner to hole up in a vacant mountain cabin where he apparently took his own life after a shootout with law enforcement officers.
