A California mass shooting that left three children and a young adult dead at a little girl’s birthday party was gang-related, according to the town’s mayor.
A total of 15 victims were struck when the deadly chaos unfolded just before 6 p.m. on Saturday at Monkey Space, a banquet hall in Stockton, roughly 40 miles south of Sacramento, Fox40 reported.
Stockton Mayor Christina Fugazi told the outlet the shooting was related to gang violence, labeling the tragic incident “domestic terrorism.”
“Let’s call it what it is. This is domestic terrorism. This is gang violence, and it has to stop in our city,” Fugazi told the outlet.
She also added that President Donald Trump’s advisers had called her early Sunday to offer their assistance — and that she has asked the US District Attorney to find the gunman who remains on the lam.
The White House did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
