Sacramento (US), Mar 1 (AP) A man shot and killed his three daughters, their chaperone and himself during a supervised visit with the girls Monday at a church in Sacramento, California, authorities said.<\/p>\n
Deputies responding to reports of gunfire around 5 p.m. found five people dead, including the shooter, at the church in the Arden-Arcade neighborhood, said Sgt. Rod Grassmann with the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office.<\/p>\n
The victims included three girls ages 9, 10 and 13, Grassmann said.<\/p>\n
The shooter was estranged from his daughters’ mother, who had a restraining order against him, Sheriff Scott Jones said.<\/p>\n
Investigators believe the shooting happened during a supervised visit with the children and that the fourth victim was their chaperone, Jones said.<\/p>\n
The shooter’s name wasn’t immediately released, but officials said he was 39 years old.<\/p>\n
An employee of The Church In Sacramento heard the gunshots and called 911, Grassmann said.<\/p>\n
Sheriff’s officials are investigating it as a domestic violence incident, he said.<\/p>\n
Officials didn’t know if the family members belonged to the church, which sits on a mostly residential block near a commercial area east of downtown Sacramento.<\/p>\n
The Church In Sacramento caters to English, Chinese and Spanish worshippers, according to its website. No events for Monday were listed on its online calendar.<\/p>\n
Gov. Gavin Newsom said his office was working with local law enforcement.<\/p>\n
Another senseless act of gun violence in America this time in our backyard. In a church with kids inside. Absolutely devastating, Newsom said on Twitter. (AP)<\/p>\n
