Two dead in Visalia (CA) church shooting
Two dead in Visalia church shooting

5:35 p.m.: A Mormon bishop in Visalia was killed Sunday when a man entered the church complex at Tulare Avenue and Conyer Street, asked for the church's leader and then shot him, police said. The suspect later called police, who found the man a short time later in a central Visalia neighborhood north of Highway 198 and fatally shot him.

The victim was identified as Clay Sannar, 42, the father of six boys, including a six-month-old infant. Police did not identify the suspect.

Police and church officials said they don't know what prompted the shooting, which occurred in the foyer of the church about 12:35 p.m.

Ralph Jordan, a church leader, said it appears the suspect didn't know Sannar. "The suspect is not a member of the church," he added.

1. These things are just a forerunner of the mess the right
wing radio and TV and politicians are creating. They are urging violence and the just laugh when people threaten the Democrats or the LEFT. I think these people have got to be insane. No sane person would get up in front of people, on radio or TV and suggest killing.

for those that have a CHL.
