“They” was said. So more than one. Cut through a fence behind the event and came through a creek behind the event. Shooting began at 5:41 PM and main shooter was killed.
Hmm. Last time I remember multiple shooters in California was San Bernardino. Islamics.
Listening to the Chief of Police and he does not have a description of the second suspect for us....After 4 hours?
Well, it’s said they cut through the fence on the north side of the Festival.
I couldn’t figure out how they could get in but, now that seems possible...
Good point...why are some deaths more important than others ?
He seems to be in shock, not clear on details
We have a good friend that lives in Hollister, goes to this festival every year..trying to find out if him & family ok ;(
I thought the two shooters were in the right foreground of that picture. Labeled and everything.
WOW.....that hit close to home. Hope the kid is OK.
garlic festival shooting mini update
local kcbs and surprisingly? cnn seem to be giving the best tv coverage at the moment. press conference just finished. rifle of unidentified type but witnesses described up to 60 rounds within about 1 minute. shooter(s) accessed area through cut in fence bypassing metal detectors at entrance. possible second shooter; if so, still at large and local residents advised to lock down for the time being.
motive not yet officially identified, but witness reportedly stated shooter said “because i am angry.” no official id or description of shooter yet.
Keep posting, please!
Currently being described as a white guy, 25-30 years old.
Heard on Fox News a few minutes ago that the shooter has been described as a white male, 20-30 years old.
They’re ok! Our friends son recently had an ACL surgery so they decided to skip this year..wow
They’re clearly shaken though, said lots of neighbors and people they’ve met throughout the years attend this festival every year.
& perp being described as young male, wearing fatigues.
Thank you Tommy John.....
My guess young white males, nihilists with no real ideas except rage and self-hatred. A few years ago, reporters would compete to get the who, what, when. Listened to TV update and gal said, “they didn’t even mention gender” and she’s too afraid to report what eyewitnesses have stated: male.
that might have been from the two ladies manning a honey booth right next to the shooter and who escaped and were later interviewed on CNN. I tuned in during the middle of that interview as they were describing the shooter.
Yeah. Some have pointed to a guy name Chase who was a very emo guy saying he was going to shoot the place up.
With psychotropic drug use in their back round.
