Three Adults Killed and Two Teen Suspects Dead in Shooting at San Diego Islamic Center, Police Say
Investigators say writings and hate rhetoric point to a possible hate crime after the attack killed three adult men and left two teenage suspects dead.
- On Monday, two teenage gunmen opened fire at the Islamic Center of San Diego in California, killing three people before taking their own lives; authorities are investigating as a potential hate crime.
- Police received a report from a mother two hours before the attack, warning her teenage son was suicidal and several weapons were missing, prompting increased security around Madison High School.
- Among the three victims was security guard Amin Abdullah, whose actions prevented a deadlier attack, while roughly 100 law enforcement officers responded to the mosque complex.
- San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl said investigators found evidence of "hate rhetoric" in the case, while California Governor Gavin Newsom stated, "Worshippers anywhere should not have to fear for their lives."
- The shooting follows rising tensions; the Council on American-Islamic Relations recorded 8,683 anti-Muslim and anti-Arab complaints in 2025, the highest since tracking began in 1996.
