#CA: A 19-year-old man with an assault rifle opened fire at the #Chabad of Poway synagogue in #Poway, Saturday morning, leaving one dead and three injured, according to authorities. Poway Mayor Steve Vaus and #SanDiego County Sheriff William D. Gore confirmed four people were transported to Palomar Medical Center with gunshot injuries at around 12 p.m., Pacific time, in a news conference Saturday afternoon.

One of the victims, a woman, “succumbed to their wounds,” Vaus said. The three others — a girl and two men — remain in the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. “I can only tell you that we have a fatality,” Vaus said, “and I can also tell you that it was a hate crime, and that will not stand.”
