Several people were shot on Saturday at a San Diego synagogue. Police have one man in custody.
The shooting took place exactly six months after the Tree of Life Shooting in Pittsburgh.
One of the victims is said to be the synagogue’s Rabbi, Yisorel Goldstein, who founded the Chabad center in 1986.
There is at least one fatality.
The mayor of Poway is calling this a hate crime.
The shooter reportedly fired off ten rounds before leaving the synagogue.
