Gunman Still on the Loose After Ten Killed in Los Angeles-area City Mass Shooting

Simon Kent 22 Jan 2023

Reports of multiple deaths after a mass shooting at a Lunar New Year celebration Saturday night in Monterey Park, Calif., just east of Los Angeles, drew dozens of police responders to the scene.

AP details local officials initially provided no information about the shooting in the city of about 60,000 people with a large Asian population that’s about 10 miles from downtown Los Angeles.

Early Sunday morning it was announced 10 people were killed and another 12 injured in the incident.

Capt. Andrew Meyer of the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department said Sunday the wounded were taken to hospitals and their conditions range from stable to critical. Meyer said the 10 people died at the scene.

Meyer said people were “pouring out of the location screaming” when officers arrived on the scene. He said officers then went into the dance ballroom as firefighters treated the wounded.

Earlier Sgt. Bob Boese of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department told AP the shooting was reported at 10:22 p.m. and occurred at a business on Garvey Ave. in Monterey Park. The shooter is a male, Boese said early Sunday.

Officials provided no information for several hours after dozens of police officers had responded to reports of the shooting.

Earlier in the day, thousands of people attended the annual festival and social gathering.

Seung Won Choi, proprietor of the Clam House seafood barbecue restaurant across the street from where the shooting happened, told the Los Angles Times three people rushed into his business and told him to lock the door behind them.

Update: At Least 10 Dead, 10 Hospitalized Following Monterey Park Shooting
By Susie Moore | 9:15 AM on January 22, 2023

As we reported early Sunday morning, a mass shooting in Monterey Park, California, during the Lunar New Year festivities has claimed multiple victims.

Per the latest update from Fox News, authorities have confirmed at least 10 of the victims have died and 10 have been transported to area hospitals, while the shooter remains at large.

The shooting occurred late Saturday evening at the Star Ballroom Dance Studio. Police gave an update shortly after 6:30 am Eastern.


Per that update, they do not yet know the type of firearm that was used, nor do they know the motive for the shooting. The suspect is described as male, but police do not yet know whether he knew any of the victims or if this was some sort of hate crime.

Why, at this moment, does anyone give a fig, "what type of gun was used"?

It's time for peace-loving people to arm themselves...open fk'n carry.

They want 'Dodge City"...give it to them.

Start with the homeless drug users shooting up on the sidewalks.

In Brazil...back in the 90s, they had police-sanctioned hit squads that 'cleaned' the streets in the middle of the night.

I've certainly had enough of this Crap...what about you?

Let me take a 'wild' guess. An Asian celebration. Blacks hate Asians and Asians hate Blacks (for good reason). Blacks are famous for unprovoked deadly attacks on Asians. Now someone does a drive-by killing an Asian celebration. Which Blacks are famous for doing.

Just as a guess? I'm petty sure we are looking for the White Supremacist who did this.

No description of the suspect, that seems to happen an awful lot when the suspect is a protected class and really makes it tough to get any leads from the public. I hadn't realized that Monterey park had shifted that much to Asian, but then I haven't been out there in many years.

I've just now seen a report that the shooter was an "Asian" man. It's curious that it took this long, given the number of witnesses.

There was a mass shooting at Monterey Park in Los Angeles at a Chinese new year celebration. Asian area. 10 dead. I expect the liberals and the MSM to pretend to care about Asian lives if they can use it to push for gun control and repeal the 2A.

I have always found it, well, too convenient that every time someone is making a push to ban semi-automatic firearms there is a sudden rash of incidents like this.

Did someone play the red queen?

Sheriff: Suspect in dance club shooting killed self in van


Quote

MONTEREY PARK, Calif. (AP) — The hunt for a gunman who killed 10 people at a ballroom dance club during Lunar New Year celebrations ended Sunday when authorities found him dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound inside the van in which he fled after a second shooting was thwarted.

Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna identified the man as 72-year-old Huu Can Tran and said no other suspects were at large. Speaking at an evening news conference, Luna said the motive for the attack remained unclear. Ten people were also wounded, seven of whom were still in the hospital.

Luna did not have the exact ages of the victims but said they all appeared to be over 50.

I just heard these dance halls were some 80 miles from the shooter's home. That's a long way to go.
