What we know about the California synagogue shooting

One woman was killed and three others were wounded when a man entered a synagogue during Passover services Saturday at the Chabad of Poway temple and opened fire with an AR-style assault weapon shortly before 11:30 a.m.

The name of the victim has not yet been released, but among those injured includes the rabbi who was conducting services.
Poway is about 25 miles northeast of San Diego and the city's mayor, President Donald Trump and California Gov. Gavin Newsom all called the attack a hate crime.

The suspect, 19-year-old John Earnest, was arrested and is being questioned by authorities.

Fred Nasseri, a longtime congregant at Chabad of Poway, told USA Today that despite the incident “we will not be broken. This is not going to break us.”
