Narrative Information

 

LA Times, Dec 9: “Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik, a married couple, opened fire at a holiday party at the Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino on Dec. 2. Fourteen people were killed and 22 injured, most of them county employees. Both attackers were killed in a gun battle with police. Farook, who was born in the U.S. and worked for the county, and Malik, a Pakistan national, had an arsenal of ammunition and pipe bombs in their Redlands home.

 

“Enrique Marquez, a friend of Farook, bought two of the guns used in the attack. He entered a mental health facility after the massacre.

 

“Farook and Malik began plotting a terror attack before they were engaged and before Malik moved to the U.S. last year. Investigators are trying to determine whether they had links to foreign terror organizations….” (LA Times. “San Bernardino shooting updates.” 12-9-2015.)
