Seven people killed in Half Moon Bay, suspect arrested

Just two days after 11 people were killed in Monterey Park in Southern California, 7 people were killed in the Bay Area city Half Moon Bay.

The seven people were killed at two different locations. Five people were found shot at one farm, four of them died and the fifth suffered life-threatening injuries. Three more people were found killed at a second farm.

Deputies went to the 12700 block of Cabrillo Highway in unincorporated San Mateo County after a call around 2:20 p.m. about a shooting with multiple victims, the sheriff’s office said. Shortly after that law enforcement found three more people killed at the second location.

The suspect was identified as 67-year-old Zhao Chunli of Half Moon Bay. He had driven to the sheriff’s substation where he was arrested. The gun believed to have been used in the shootings was found in his car. Law enforcement officials believe Chunli worked at one of the farms.
