FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
Paul Singh, whose 19-year-old sister Devinder Kaur was shot in the arm during
Monday’s rampage, told Reuters that according to his sister, the man was a
former student who showed up to class for the first time in four months.
“‘Get in line and I’m going to kill you all,’ is what he said this
morning, my sister told me. They thought he was joking at first,'” Mr
Singh said.
Tashi Wangchuk said his wife, 28-year-old Dechen Yangzom, was in the second
classroom when she heard gunfire.
“Out of instinct, she locked the door and turned off the lights then the
guy came and banged on the door and shot several rounds at the door and then
he left,” Mr Wangchuk said. “The police said what she did was
heroic.”
Oakland police spokesman Johnna Watson said at least seven people had been
killed and three others wounded.
It was the deadliest outburst of gun violence at a US school since a Virginia
Tech student shot and killed 32 people in a 2007 massacre on that campus
before killing himself.
Images from local TV stations on Monday showed frightened students and staff
running from the school, located in a light industrial area near Oakland
International Airport, as police and SWAT teams carrying assault rifles
surrounded the area.
Hours later, two bodies remained on a grassy area outside the school, covered
by yellow plastic sheeting.
Agents from the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms were on the scene,
along with dozens of local police.
“No American mayor wants to have this situation,” Oakland Mayor
Jean Quan told a news conference. “This is the kind of incident that
hurts the whole community.”
Angie Johnson, 52, told the San Francisco Chronicle newspaper she was doing
errands nearby when she saw a young woman run from the college with a
bloodied right arm, crying “I’ve been shot, I’ve been shot.”
Ms Johnson said the wounded woman told her the shooter was a man in her
nursing class who shot one person at point-blank range before spraying the
room with bullets.
Nearby businesses were evacuated and shut down for the day as officers
searched the school and surrounding area. A spokeswoman for nearby Highland
Memorial Hospital declined to comment on the condition of victims being
treated there.
“As you may have heard, the suspected shooter in today’s deadly shooting
at Oikos University on Edgewater Drive is in custody, and it appears he
acted alone,” a brief statement from the Oakland city administration
said.
“The surrounding area is still cordoned off, but police have advised
that no imminent public safety threat appears to exist in the immediate area,”
it said.
Oikos, which offers programs in theology, nursing, music and Asian medicine,
describes itself on its website as having been started to provide the “highest
standard education with Christian value and inspiration.”
“The tragic loss of life at Oikos University today is shocking and sad,”
California Governor Jerry Brown said in a statement released through his
office.
“Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims, their families and
friends and the entire community affected by this senseless act of violence.”
