A Kootenai County magistrate judge set bail at $2 million for Jonathan Renfro, who is suspected of shooting Coeur d’Alene police Sgt. Greg Moore early this morning. Renfro is facing five felony charges in connection with the shooting: attempted murder, stealing a police car, stealing a police gun, being a convict in possession of a gun, and removing a gun from an officer acting in his official capacity. Prosecutors allege that Renfro shot Moore with his own gun, then took the sergeant’s gun off of him as he lay on the ground. Police believe he tried to dispose of evidence after allegedly stealing Moore’s car and leading police on a high-speed chase along Interstate 90. 1st District Court Magistrate James Stow asked Renfro if he understood the charges against him, and Renfro said he did/Scott Maben, SR.
