Teacher, 8-year-old boy and gunman dead after murder-suicide at California school

AKIPRESS.COM - A gunman fatally shot his wife and one of her young students at a San Bernardino, Calif., school Monday, before turning the gun on himself, U.S. media report citing officials.

The slain boy, Jonathan Martinez, 8, was an innocent bystander struck by bullets meant for his teacher Karen Smith, LA Times reported.

Smith’s husband opened fire with a concealed handgun he snuck into the special needs classroom at North Park Elementary School, cops said at a press conference.

Cedric Anderson, 53, walked into the school saying he needed to drop something off for Smith, also 53. He brandished the weapon in front of her 15 students, two teaching aides and opened fire. A 9-year-old was wounded in the assault but was in stable condition late Monday.
