The Ventura County District Attorney’s Office on Thursday released the findings from its two-year investigation into the 2018 Borderline Bar & Grill mass shooting.
The shooting, which took place at a Thousand Oaks bar frequented by a number of young Santa Clarita Valley country music fans, occurred Nov. 7, 2018, and resulted in the deaths of 13 people, including Ventura County sheriff’s Sgt. Ron Helus and the shooter, 28-year-old Ian David Long.
The investigation found that Long entered the bar armed with a handgun, 190 rounds of ammunition, a knife and 10 smoke grenades. Approximately 260 patrons and employees began to scramble once they heard the first shots ring out.
