" At least 10 people were killed and 10 others wounded in a shooting rampage at a dance club after a Lunar New Year celebration in Monterey Park, California, authorities said."
"The gunman remains at large. "
There's no description except the shooter was male.
"Monterey Park is a city of 60,000 people about 10 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. The shooting took place shortly after a Lunar New Year's celebration had brought thousands of people to the city, which has a majority-Asian population."
"The wounded were taken to hospitals and their conditions range from stable to critical, [sheriff’s Capt. Andrew] Meyer said. Meyer said people were “pouring out of the location screaming” when officers arrived on the scene at around 10:30 p.m. and entered the dance ballroom. "
Monterey Park in the '80s was mostly populated by Taiwanese immigrants, and it was called the" Chinese Beverly Hills".

"... some kind of incident in the neighboring suburb of Alhambra, north of Monterey Park, “and we have investigators on scene trying to determine if there’s a connection between these two incidents.”"
"Law enforcement were on scene at the Lai Lai Ballroom & Studio on the 100 block of South Garfield Avenue in Alhambra Sunday morning, about two miles north of the Monterey Park shooting."
"Seung Won Choi, who owns a seafood barbecue restaurant on Garvey Avenue across from where the shooting happened, said three people rushed into his restaurant and told him to lock the door.
They said there was a man with a semiautomatic gun in the area. The shooter, they said, had multiple rounds of ammunition on him, so that once his ammunition ran out he reloaded, Choi said.
Wong Wei, who lives nearby, said his friend had gone to the dance club that night with a few of her friends. His friend was in the bathroom when the shooting started.
When she came out, he said, she saw a gunman and three bodies — two women and one person who was the boss of the club, Wei said, adding that his friend escaped to his home around 11 p.m.
The shooter was carrying a long gun and appeared to fire indiscriminately, his friend told him."
"Monterey Park, a city of 61,000 in the San Gabriel Valley, has a majority Asian American population. Located east of Los Angeles, the suburb is 65% Asian American, 27% Latino and 6% white, according to census data."
"The mass shooting in Monterey Park was one of the worst in modern Los Angeles County history.
One of the last mass shootings of this scale happened on Christmas Eve in 2008, when a man dressed as Santa Claus entered a home in Covina, armed with five handguns. Nine people were killed in that shooting rampage, including the gunman’s former wife and her parents.
The gunman took his life hours later after the shootings."
"Other mass shootings in California in recent memory include the massacre at a San Ysidro McDonald’s in 1984, where a gunman killed 21 people; and the terrorist attack that resulted in 14 deaths in San Bernardino in 2015."
"Saturday’s shooting came just five days after six people — including a 10-month old baby, her 16-year-old mother, and a grandmother — were killed in the Central Valley farming community of Goshen in Tulare County."
