[Earlier post] Six people are dead and three are in critical condition after a shooting Wednesday at a hair salon in the Southern California community of Seal Beach, Police Sgt. Steve Bowles said.
A suspect, described as a white male, is in custody, he added.
"He was cooperative. He did not provide any resistance to the officers and he was taken into custody," Bowles said.
In addition to the people who were killed and injured, Bowles said, "there were people in the salon who were not shot."
Authorities are investigating what relationship the gunman had with anyone inside the Salon Meritage.
"We don't know if he's related or what his involvement is with the salon," Bowles said.
FULL STORY
Bad hair day?
Lol...I love her hair !
90 minutes of someone touching my face... I DON"T THINK SO! lol
Meth strikes again.
lived there for five years in the 80's, nice, upscale beach town, major problems not many burgleries, drunks on main street on sat night about all that happens. Only problem was everyone knew your business small town life. Nice place to live
What's up with the minorities comments? Did u not read that the shooter was a white male? Geesh!!
U LIE HES A MOSLIM TERRORIST
yeah no minorities are going to wear body armor... they are more likely to wear a life vest instead.
If hair salons were illegal, there would be no murders in hair salons.
@ Audry-Killing another person, murder is not funny. @ Bill-why did you have to make a point of where "all the minorities" live have anything to do with anything! You should be horrified and outraged that ANYONE was murdered, regardless of where they lived! It's horrible! No matter who it was, where it was, or even if happened to be a gang related murder in the worst part of town! It's just gotta stop! *Mary*
Have lived here for 5 years....would have never imagined anything like this would ever happen in this quiet little beach town. As to the previous post, still nice and upscale but not snobby – beach town. And yes, everyone knows your business.
They thought they were going into a salon
*puts on sunglasses*
but they ended up in a saloon
YYYYYEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!
My condolences to the families of the victims and a hope for a speedy recovery for the injured.
i thought those tough gun control laws were supposed to prevent this (not)
Yes, it's very sad.
WHY did this have to become about race and/or religion, before much was known about the shooting?
What did it have to do with "rich," unless it was a robbery?
It's really weird how Mmmmm will laugh at people getting killed, and in the breath talk about people getting abortions...hypocrite much? All of you "birther" morons should be ashamed!
Hey, I know...let's play a fabulous new game!
Let's all wait for more details before we jump the gun (pun not intended) with all the speculation? Of course, that *is* what we're best at.
