SAN JOSE, Calif. — A fourth Oakland police officer has died following two separate shootouts in which three other officers and a parolee were killed.

John Hege, 41, who had been with the Oakland department since 1999, was pronounced dead at Highland Hospital shortly before noon today, said Jeff Thomason, a department spokesman.

The three other Oakland police officers were pronounced dead Saturday after a traffic stop and, later, as a SWAT team tried to apprehend the man.
