After a significant drop in mass shootings in the United States during a pandemic-hit 2020, this year has already seen several deadly cases, including a mass.
The shooting killed employees who had been bus and light rail operators, mechanics, linemen and an assistant superintendent over the course of their careers. One had worked for the agency since 1999.
The victims, many of them longtime employees of the transit agency, were identified by the Santa Clara County Office of the Medical Examiner-Coroner Wednesday night as Paul Delacruz Megia, 42; Taptejdeep Singh, 36; Adrian Balleza, 29; Jose Dejesus Hernandez, 35; Timothy Michael Romo, 49; Michael Joseph Rudometkin, 40; Abdolvahab Alaghmandan, 63; Lars Kepler Lane, 63; and Alex Ward Fritch, 49.
The ninth victim, Fritch, died late Wednesday after he was transported to the hospital in critical condition, the medical examiner s office said.
Even though the U.S. government has been constantly pledging to crack down on rampaging gun violence, deadly shootings continue happening all across the United States, taking lives and shedding blood of people in the country.
