History

2017 shooting spree

On November 13/14, a 44-year-old man, Kevin Janson Neal, went on a killing spree, shooting his wife and his neighbors. Neal then crashed his vehicle into a car, which killed and injured two people. Shortly afterwards, he engaged in a shootout with police officers, in which random people were harmed, including some children. One of the children was shot at Rancho Tehama Elementary School, a school within the Corning Union Elementary School District.[3] Five people were killed and 18 others were wounded, some from bullets, and some from flying glass. Neal fatally shot himself after exchanging gunfire with a Corning police officer and a deputy sheriff who responded to the call after they briefly chased him and ultimately rammed him, in a vehicle he had stolen from one of his victims.[4][2]
