A gunman killed one woman and injured three others in a synagogue in San Diego, United States, on Saturday. The police said the suspect, identified as 19-year-old John Earnest, surrendered after first fleeing the crime scene in a car, Reuters reported.
The injured include a rabbi, a 34-year-old man and a girl. The incident occurred as the Jewish devotees were observing the last day of the Passover.
