<br />Orange County Active Shooter Incidents - On July 12, 1976, a Cal State University -Fullerton custodian entered
<br />the university library with a rifle and, traveling through the first floor and basement, killed seven people and
<br />wounded two more. He left the university in his car but shortly thereafter called the police to turn himself in.
<br />On October 12, 2011, a man armed with three handguns and wearing body armor entered the Salon Meritage Hair
<br />Salon in Seal Beach, where his ex-wife worked. He killed seven persons and wounded one more inside the salon,
<br />and killed one more person seated outside in a vehicle as he fled the scene. Police apprehended him as he drove
<br />away from the scene.
<br />On August 23, 2023, at approximately 7:00 PM, a man traveled to the Cook's Corner restaurant and bar in the
<br />Orange County unincorporated area of Trabuco Canyon, in search of his estranged wife, who was dining there
<br />with a friend. He entered the crowded restaurant with two handguns, shooting and gravely wounding his wife and
<br />killing her dining companion, and continued firing randomly at other restaurant guests. He returned to his car to
<br />retrieve a third handgun and a shotgun, continuing to shoot at guests as he passed and killing a bystander who
<br />attempted to stop him. Shooting was still occurring when police officers arrived, and the shooter was killed after
<br />several minutes of exchanging gunfire with police. A total of three victims were killed (not including the shooter)
<br />and six more were wounded in the event.
<br />Impacts of Targeted Violence Incidents
<br />Any urban city will have violence related to criminal or gang activity or personal disputes occurring on a regular
<br />basis. Suburban and rural locations will experience these occasionally as well and these do not constitute major
<br />emergencies. In contrast, an ASI or targeted violence incident will have a magnified impact on the jurisdiction,
<br />requiring the use of far more resources over a much longer period of time.
<br />Targeted violence can generate a large number of critically injured persons requiring significant emergency
<br />medical treatment, overwhelming the available emergency medical services, ground and air ambulance services,
