One person was killed and five were wounded Sunday during an attack at a Taiwanese church in California. The shooter was reportedly driven by hatred of the self-governing territory. Taiwan’s President Tsai Ing-wen released a statement Tuesday saying she condemned “any form of violence” and sent her sympathies to those killed and injured. She also asked the territory’s chief representative in the United States to fly to California to help. The suspect in the Sunday shooting is 68-year-old David Chou of Las Vegas, Nevada. Law enforcement officials said he locked the doors of the Geneva Presbyterian Church in Laguna Woods, California, and hid bombs before shooting at the people inside. He opened fire until Dr. John Cheng tackled him. That permitted other people to overpower the shooter and tie him up. Cheng was killed and five others were wounded. Officials said Monday that Cheng’s action saved many lives. Chou was expected to appear in a California state court Tuesday on suspicion of murder and attempted murder. A federal hate crimes investigation is also ongoing.
