Orange County gunman, shooting seems to be related to business dispute, mobile home company

PICTURED: Gunman, 44, who 'shot four people dead at an LA office complex and chained the gates closed so cops couldn't get in': Police say shooter knew all his victims - including boy, 9, found dead in a woman's arms



Aminadab Gaxiola Gonzalez, 44, from Fullerton, was named as the suspect in the shooting on Thursday

Police said a nine-year-old boy shot dead was found in the arms of a woman, who was critically injured

The massacre which left four dead and two injured took place at 5.30pm at an office block in Orange

The victims are said to have had either a personal or business relationship with the alleged shooter

Cops arrived to live gunfire and at least one officer shot at the suspect who was injured and taken to hospital

It is the third mass shooting in two weeks after the Atlanta spa attack and the Boulder grocery massacre

Police said the shooting involved the office suites of a company called Unified Homes, a mobile home brokerage. Lt. Amat added: 'The preliminary motive is believed to be related to a business and personal relationship which existed between the suspect and all the adults.'

Gonzalez is said to have had 'issues' with those at the location as part of a 'business dispute', officials said.

Paul Tovar had told KTLA-TV Wednesday that his brother owns United Homes. 'He's not answering his phone, neither's my niece,' Mr Tovar said. 'I'm pretty scared and worried - right now I'm just praying really hard.'

Hector Gomez works in the building. He had told The New York Times that the woman who ran a real estate office - where the windows were shot out Wednesday - would often bring her son to work.

One report on the shooting said it was the worst mass shooting in Orange CA since 1997. The fact that we're recycling sites for shooting sprees is so far wrong.
