Following a tragic shootout that claimed the lives of two police officers and the assailant, investigators from the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Office made a startling discovery at a residence in Salina. The search, which commenced on Tuesday morning and is expected to continue into Wednesday, revealed additional firearms at the scene of the fatal incident, shedding new light on the events that unfolded.
Uncovering New Evidence
As officers meticulously combed through the house located at 4945 Darien Dr, they stumbled upon multiple hunting rifles and two gun cabinets in the bedrooms. The area was cordoned off with yellow tape as authorities carefully examined and documented the firearms, placing them in clear plastic bags for further analysis to determine ownership and legality.
The search also led to the discovery of a suspicious white substance believed to be cocaine, adding another layer of complexity to an already tragic situation. The substance has been collected for laboratory testing to confirm its identity and potential connection to the fatal shootout.

Murphy, has prompted a thorough investigation by law enforcement.
