Frank Harwood, 42, was a battalion chief with the Kootenai County Fire & Rescue Department, where he was a 17-year veteran of the department. Battalion Chief John Morrison, 52, of the Coeur d'Alene Fire Department, had been with the department for more than 28 years.

The gunman is believed to have started the fire so he could target the responding firefighters, officials said. Two were killed and another seriously injured.
