So he tells the blacks to leave the pool or die. Then he starts shooting while drinking a beer.
The Last Tradition: Gunman Peter Selis opens fire at upscale San Diego Apartment complex pool allegedly targeting Blacks killing 1, injuring 7
A white car mechanic casually held a beer in one hand while shooting seven people ? all non-whites ? at a San Diego-area apartment complex pool.
An eighth man was injured as he fled the scene.
The mass shooter, who was shot to death by police, was identified as Peter Selis, 49, a white man who lived in the luxury apartment complex. Witnesses said he smirked as he calmly shot people after being invited to join the pool party. He was a service technician at a San Diego-area Ford car dealer whose life was crumbling under financial stress and a mountain of credit card debt.
According to police, the victims included four African-American females, two African-American males, one Hispanic male, and an African-American-male who broke his arm fleeing. Police have not yet labeled the mass shooting a hate crime, however, as they say the motive is under investigation.
Several of the victims were reportedly in critical condition after the April 30 shooting at the University City apartment complex, according to Fox 5 San Diego. It was later reported that one victim, a female, has died. Her name has not yet been released.
