NASCAR driver Bobby East was fatally stabbed this week by a drifter during a bloody altercation at a California gas station. RIP
-- Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... a SWAT team executed a search warrant at an Anaheim-area apartment Friday -- two days after East was stabbed -- where officers were informed Millsap may be holed up. During the raid, an officer-involved shooting occurred ... we're told Millsap was shot and killed on the scene as the police were trying to arrest him. The Orange County DA is investigating the shooting.
Millsap, who had an outstanding parole warrant, is a drifter who frequents motels in the usually safe and crime-free Westminister area. He is considered armed and dangerous. East was a three-time U.S. Auto Club champion who snagged the USAC Silver Crown Championships in 2012 and 2013.
