'Workplace dispute drove agricultural laborer to shoot seven SEVEN Chinese farm workers' in the San Francisco Bay area - less than 48 hours after Monterey Park shooting near Los Angeles claimed 11 lives
A 67-year-old veteran farm worker has killed seven fellow Chinese agricultural laborers in what local news described as a workplace dispute.
Zhao Chunli, who lived in Half Moon Bay, was arrested and is 'fully cooperating' with law enforcement, officials said.
The shootings took place at two separate locations in Half Moon Bay, with four shot at a farm ran by Concord Farms, and three at Mountain Mushroom Farms two miles away. Officials are unsure which was attacked first.
Children were present on the scene at the time, because some of the workers lived on-site with their families.
An eighth person was shot and injured, and airlifted to Stanford Medical Center.
ABC7 News confirmed that the suspect, who lived in Pescadero, had worked for decades at one of the mushroom farms where the shooting took place, and all victims were co-workers. Dramatic footage from ABC News shows the moment Zhao was taken into custody, in the parking lot of the Half Moon sheriff's office, at 4:40pm.
His maroon Lexus SUV had been spotted leaving the scene, and was then seen at the sheriff's office. A weapon was found in his vehicle: Zhao is believed to have acted alone, and is cooperating with law enforcement.
The killings come less than 48 hours after 72-year-old Huu Can Tran shot and killed 11 people celebrating Lunar New Year in Monterey Park, near Los Angeles.
Sheriff Christina Corpus of San Mateo County said: 'This kind of shooting is horrific.
'It's a tragedy we hear about too often, but today it has hit home to Half Moon Bay.' Source
