Officials say the three people wounded in a shooting at a Southern California synagogue have been released from hospitals.
The attack during a Passover service Saturday at Chabad of Poway killed one congregant, 60-year-old Lori Kaye.
Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein was shot in the hand. Two worshippers — 34-year-old Almog Peretz and 8-year-old Noya Dahan — suffered shrapnel wounds.
Hospital officials say Sunday that all three have been discharged.
Goldstein tells CNN that his scarred hand will serve as a reminder how vulnerable we all are to acts of terror.
Police are searching the home of the 19-year-old alleged shooter who was arrested shortly after the attack. He’s expected to be arraigned this week on charges including murder and attempted murder.
