TUSTIN, California — A chaotic shooting spree early Tuesday through Orange County, Calif., left four people dead, including the shooter, and two others injured before the man stopped and shot himself to death in a stolen car, police said.

There were multiple crime scenes in Tustin and Orange and many more victims who were shot at but unhurt, Tustin Lt. Paul Garaven said.The shootings began at 4:45 a.m. when deputies responding to a call found a female shot multiple times in a house in Ladera Ranch, said Orange County sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino. The city is in the southern part of the suburban county about 30 miles south of Los Angeles.

From 5:30 a.m. to 5:55 a.m., Tustin police received reports of shootings in several locations, Tustin police Supervisor Dave Kanoti.

The motive for the shootings was unclear, and it's also unclear if the victims knew each other or the shooter, Amormino said.

"I do not believe any of the victims are related to each other. It might have been a random thing," he said. "We just don't know."

The first call that came in was at Red Hill Avenue and Interstate 5. Police arrived and determined a carjacking had occurred and that victim was uninjured. An innocent bystander who was hit by gunfire was taken to a hospital, Garaven said.The next call was at State Route 55 and McFadden Avenue. Another carjacking occurred and that victim died, Garaven said.

The last call was about a man with a gun, he said, at Edinger Avenue east of the 55. An officer arrived and found two more victims — one dead and the other injured.

Officers located the man and followed him into the city of Orange, Garaven said.

"When they tried to stop, he killed himself in the car," Garaven said.

The suspect is a male, although Garaven couldn't confirm his age. He didn't have the sexes of all the victims.

The lieutenant said the suspect succeeded in stealing a vehicle at each carjacking.

"There have been other people coming forward saying they were shot at or their cars were shot at," he said, but so far none had reported any serious injury.

The conditions of the wounded victims were unknown.

A spokeswoman for the California Highway Patrol said they didn't have any active crime scenes on the freeway but the southbound 55 McFadden Avenue off-ramp would be closed until further notice.

Authorities were processing six crime scenes across the county.

This is what happens when people are addicted to Grand Theft Auto. One day one day, they must act it out in real life.

pple get angry easily this days cos the end is near...well, for me, the best gun control is to avoid using and selling this gun itself..
Re: 4 Killed In California Shooting Spree by AbouNazir(m): 8:49pm On Feb 19, 2013
This is becoming a fad. I am for gun control. People campaigning against it will sing a new song when their families or friends become victims. Heck! A liberal society like the US should put a leash on gun ownership. The rest of the world is laughing at us. America will not self-destruct! cry

America is not safe, I advise all Nigerians living in that country to be very careful and should not enter public gatherings at odd hours. The proliferation of guns in that country even in the hands of suicidal Americans is a lethal combo.

This mass shootings are now happening frequently now, 2 weeks ago it was Christopher donner, now it's another guy.
Re: 4 Killed In California Shooting Spree by Nobody: 8:59pm On Feb 19, 2013
And this is perpetrated by a lone person? What was his motive? He suceeded in jacking a car from all the crime scenes? He actually started this his happy trigger business by 4:45 and wasnt caught even until after 5:55 and was only intercepted after he was done wit his business? Why does this sound to me like Naija security operatives incompetency personified?
unfortunately no one is likely going to know his motive. SORRY!
