GILROY (KRON) – Police on Tuesday morning continue to investigate what the motive of the gunman was when he opened fire at the Gilroy Garlic Festival on Sunday.
Gilroy police say 19-year-old Santino William Legan fired an AK-47 style rifle at a crowd, killing a man and two children.
At least 12 others were hurt.
According to the police chief, Legan apparently got into the festival by cutting through a back fence.
He then began shooting at random.
Investigators say three officers who responded to the shooting shot and killed Legan.
Officials have not given a motive for the shooting.
Instagram posts under the gunman’s name mentioned a white supremacist book and showed a picture of the event shortly before the shooting.
