VISALIA, Calif. – Six people were killed in a shooting at a home in central California on Monday. The scene is in the 6800 Block of Harvest Road in unincorporated Goshen.
The victims included a 17-year-old mother and her 6-month-old baby.
“The report was that an active shooter was in the area because of the number of shots that were being fired,” Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux said.
Authorities are searching for at least two suspects and believe that there may be a gang connection to the killings.
“I think it’s specifically connected to the cartel,” Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux told The LA Times. “The level of violence … this was not your run-of-the-mill low-end gang member.”
The sheriff’s office had conducted a narcotics-related search warrant at the residence the previous week.
