describe how i feel personally about this and how my department is reacting. >> it rocked our community to our foundation. >> it's not clear yet how goulet was able to shoot and kill two police officers. according to one report he was a former marine and soldier who did own three guns including a beretta and semi auto sig sauer. >> nbc bay area uncovered the suspect in the tragedy does have a criminal history. kristy smith is live in berkeley where goulet lived for a brief period. she has more on that part of the story. good morning. >> good morning to you, jon. at least one neighbor here in the elm wood neighborhood describes the suspect as super, super creepy. goulet lived here only briefly in an apartment since about 2011 but had recently moved away.

david einhorn spearheads the drive. he proposed apple create a special class of stock for the permanent dividend. man on the left is apple ceo tim cooke, of course. what does he think? we don't know. it's not been clear what cooke will announce. generally speaking, shareholders in a company get a vote into what the company does. apple has tried to maneuver the vote in a way to defeat the dividend idea. a judge decided apple couldn't do this. this is complicated. bottom line, lots of money out there. much of it overseas so ap al is reluctant to bring it back to america for payout. it will be hit with the world's biggest tax bill. these things will be ham herred out. we suspect today. >> all right, scott. this morning, not something the main stream press will cover from the inside. >> i don't think so. this is a private meeting, private property among shareholders in the company. bloggers tend to buy a single share of company stock so they
