USA – 4 dead in southern California shooting
Four people, including a child, were killed on Wednesday evening in a shooting incident at a business complex in the city of Orange in California, The Washington Times reported. One person has been injured in the incident.
The suspected shooter has been hospitalised after he was injured in a gunfight with the police. This is the third mass shooting in the United States in two weeks.
The FBI Los Angeles division responded to the shooting in a routine manner but that the Orange Police Department was the lead investigative agency.
“Horrifying and heartbreaking,” said California governor Gavin Newsom on Twitter. “Our hearts are with the families impacted by this terrible tragedy tonight.”
The killings were the latest mass shooting in the United States in the last two weeks. Ten people were killed in a Boulder, Colorado, supermarket last week and eight people were fatally shot including six Asian women in three Atlanta-area spas the week before that.
