Gunman kills five people in a series of shootings in California
The shootings began shortly before 5:30 p.m
California - Egypt Today
Authorities say a gunman in California has killed five people, including his wife, before turning the gun on himself as a sheriff's deputy closed in.
Kern County Sheriff Donny Youngblood says the shootings began shortly before 5:30 p.m. Wednesday and occurred at a business and a home in Bakersfield, about 90 miles north of Los Angeles.
The man killed his wife and a man at a trucking company in Bakersfield, California, Kern County Sheriff Donny Youngblood said.
He then killed another man nearby the company and two men later at a residence. He commandeered a vehicle before he killed himself when he was confronted by a sheriff's deputy, Youngblood said.
Authorities were working to determine "why this started and why so many players involved and the connection because obviously these are not random shootings," Youngblood said.
Youngblood did not disclose the identities of the victims.
