Muškarac koji je kasno u subotu ubio desetero ljudi tijekom proslave kineske Lunarne nove godine u plesnoj dvorani u Monterrey Parku, gradiću u blizini Los Angelesa, počinio je samoubojstvo.

Šerif okruga Los Angeles Robert Luna objavio je kako je ubojica identifciran kao 72-godišnjak Huu Can Tran, no kako njegov motiv za ovaj pokolj nije poznat.

“Želimo znati kako se nešto ovako grozno dogodilo”, kazao je Luna dodavši kako je ubojica sebi oduzeo život u nedjelju u gradu Torranceu, gradu 30-ak kilometara od mjesta zločina nakon što ga je policija identificirala.

Upao i na drugu lokaciju, zaštitari ga zaustavili

Nakon što je ubio deset osoba u Moterrey Parku, Tran je s pištoljem upao na proslavu kineske nove godine i u Alhambri, ali su ga zaštitari uspjeli neutralizirati.

Monterey Park je grad udaljen oko jedanaest kilometara od središta Los Angelesa. Oko dvije trećine njegovih stanovnika su Azijati, pokazuju podaci američkog popisa stanovništva.
