Police in California on Sunday were trying to determine the motive behind a “random and unprovoked attack” at a movie theater that left two people dead, including teen TikTok star Anthony Barajas. Barajas died Saturday from wounds suffered in the shooting July 26 at the Regal Edwards Theatre in Corona, a Riverside County city of 160,000 people 50 miles east of Los Angeles. Joseph Jimenez,20, was being held on $2 million bail on murder and other charges, including a special circumstance of lying in wait that makes him eligible for the death penalty if convicted. Police said Rylee Goodrich,18, and Barajas,19, both of Corona, had watched the film “The Forever Purge.” The film is the fifth installment in a franchise of horror movies in which murder and other violent crimes are legal for one day every year.
