14 people are dead in San Bernardino. Yet another mass shooting took place Wednesday night in California. The police said that there were two assailants, Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik.
The couple were at a party in the Inland Regional Center when they opened fire. The police also said that the attack was preplanned and that they were well prepared, being heavily armed and having a lot of ammunition and pipe bombs inside of their home.
The 14 people killed have not all been identified yet, but the ones they have ranged from ages 26-60. This latest attack was just one of many in the last 5 months. President Obama said that they still didn’t know if the couple had any ties to a terrorist group.
ISIS called the couple supporters, but not exactly members, so this doesn’t confirm any ties between them before the shooting. Malik was in the U.S. on fiance visa, while Farook was born and raised here. Farook’s father stated that his son supported ISIS’s views.
