A gunman killed at least three people at a
California food festival on Sunday before being shot dead by police, and
police were hunting for a second person they believed was involved in the killing.
Some 15 people were wounded during the mass
shooting at the three-day Gilroy Garlic Festival in northern California, some of them hurt in the crush of bystanders trying to flee, police said.
Police reached the scene within a minute of the first shots ringing out at 5:45 p.m. and officers shot and killed the gunman moments later, according to Scot Smithee, who heads the Gilroy Police Department.
