The shooting happened near a Lunar New Year celebration in Monterey Park, California, one of the largest festivals for the occasion in the state.
At least 10 people were killed and 10 others wounded in a shooting rampage at a dance club after a Lunar New Year celebration in Monterey Park, California, authorities said.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department issued a brief statement saying the shooting was reported at 10:22 p.m. Saturday. The gunman remained at-large
"Los Angeles County Sheriff's Homicide detectives are responding to assist Monterey Park Police Department with a shooting death investigation," the statement said. The initial death toll was nine; authorities later said 10 people had died.
Monterey Park is a city of 60,000 people about 10 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. The shooting took place shortly after a Lunar New Year's celebration had brought thousands of people to the city, which has a majority-Asian population.

Wait for the governor to blame this on “out of state guns”
@Sandwich_Chef_Chef_Of_Sandwichgcmorocco watched one Vox video n ran w it
@Yëatism
I don’t care about republicans or democrats.
They exist to make people think they have a choice.
The world is more nuanced than good and bad.
As far as in jail/out of jail?
It’s a chicken or egg.
USA is 4% of the world population.
20% of world prison population.
At 4-5 times more incarcerated citizens than any other top 20 wealthy nations.
Not exactly the land of the free.
More inmates doesn’t seem to be working at all.
@marauder
With what technology could they predict that some lunatic would flip his lid?
@Sandwich_Chef_Chef_Of_Sandwich It’s actually quite accurate.
Maybe it was 🤷
“No description available, other than male”? We all know that means the usually suspects
But you not supposed to point out the obvious apparently 🤷♀️
Where’s the description , just gonna be silent while everyone blames Republicans
@g.c.morrocco7475 How do I describe a republican? Hmm maybe Someone who doesn’t groom children into getting sex change surgery?
@First Last Yeah, because everything that happened during Trumps presidency that are positive are because of all the great things that O’bama did. Everything bad that’s happening now is due to the evil Trump
@First Last agreed
@NoLefTurnUnStoned Someone who is registered as a Republican. Why are you so dumb ?
There’s no description because the shooter was likely black or another minority. If he was White they would waste no time demonizing White people and guns.
I keep that thang on me! 🔫
No news here, it’s just California.
Mind the didtractions. Its always to take focus off what “they” are doing. Like a magician
Well the shooter must not be wite. If he was that’s what they would have started with.
He is Asian.
“Not immediately caught”. That bugs me , that implies they know who the person is .
All deceptions to blame guns…They want to disarm you do not be fooled!
⭐Blame LA County Sheriff for the mass shooting.🐴They were NOT doing their job, in between, illegally developing real-estate. 🏗 Everyone is there illegally? 🧟
@Donald Harlan huhhh?
The LAPD is now in the real estate business? I’m lost
@Jeff B856 Yes, also money laundering for the cartel.
Hey, California. Why didn’t those gun control laws kick in?
Grow up Your BS is played out You know guns are not illegal but still make childish remarks
obey the US law or just get out from that country. be grateful , appreciate and pray for your country . Never revolt or ruin it.
This is what happens when kids have access to firearms.
California has some of the strictest gun laws. This is an Asian dance club and it’s their new year
The perp as per the pictures looks like an older gent.

People are so inhumane and barbarous.
Its human nature
Was Alec Baldwin near Monterey Park last night? Just wondering.
Was it the cartel or a regular person? Or a gang?
None of the above
Some people believe that Chinese New Year originated in the Shang Dynasty (1600–1046 BC), when people held sacrificial ceremonies in honor of gods and ancestors at the beginning or the end of each year.
u think this mass shooting was a _sacrifice_ ?? lmao
When you choose to vote for candidates who support laws that make it impossible for you to defend yourself, this is what you end up with. If this shooter had the impression that all of his targets were armed, there would have been no shooting to begin with.
What!!!! You mean to tell me those strict guns couldn’t stop evil!!!! Unreal!!!
