The man who killed three people at the Gilroy Garlic Festival in California on Sunday has been named in local reports as 19-year-old Santino William Legan. | |
The suspect was killed by police after he opening fire at the event, killing three people including a six year-old boy, and injuring 15 others. A manhunt is underway for a second suspect who could be a potential accomplice, CBS News reports. | |
Police recovered the shooter’s backpack, a rifle, and ammunition at the scene, and have searched his home. The attacker reportedly shouted that he was shooting because he was “very angry.” | |
