Santa opens fire at Christmas Eve party

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) [/b]-- At least three people were found dead after a man dressed as Santa Claus started shooting at a Christmas Eve party in suburban Los Angeles, police said Thursday.





Bruce Jeffery Pardo is a "person of interest" in the incident, authorities say.

An 8-year-old girl and a woman in her 20s were hospitalized with gunshot wounds that authorities do not consider life-threatening.

Crews took a third person to a hospital with an injury that wasn't life-threatening and wasn't caused by gunfire, said police in Covina, a city about 20 miles east of downtown Los Angeles.

The shooting started around 11:30 p.m. Wednesday.

When police arrived at the two-story house, they discovered a fire that caused "significant damage." Authorities found three people dead inside but said they do not know how the three died. Their identities had not been released Thursday morning.

"There was some source of ignition that caused the fire," Covina police Lt. Pat Buchanan said at a news conference Thursday morning. "We've not been able to identify it yet."

Covina police identified "a person of interest" in the assault as Bruce Jeffery Pardo, 45. Pardo was described 6 feet 3 inches and 250 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes.

Authorities said Pardo's name was given to them by people who were at the party.

Buchanan said Pardo was "going through some type of marital problems."

Police believe the residence where the shootings occurred belongs to one of Pardo's relatives, Buchanan said.

According to police, the gunman arrived at the party wearing a Santa Claus outfit but changed into regular street clothes before leaving. The gunman is considered armed and dangerous, Buchanan said.

This is just a minor event considering the assholes that prey on survivors of catastrophes like the Twin Towers and Hurricane Katrina, but it still pisses me off. If you can't relax and have fun at a Christmas party, where can you have fun?

Ifmost Americanshad CCW's perhaps some of these situations are averted. Like at Virginia Tech. Teachers return fire and no kids die. Same at Columbine. You weren't living in Utah when the H-Fi Murders happened; were you? That was brutal.

No. Pencils. They shoved pencils in the ears of the people, poured Drano down their throats, and then duct taped their mouths shut. The fucked up part of the story outside of the sick murders itself is that the two Black airmen from Hill AFB that did it admitted to the whole thing. The NAACP complained anyway - saying they were unjustlysentenced since they were Black and the jury where White mormons. These two dirtballs finally got the injection; but NAACP dragged it out for a decade by pouring huge money at it.

With you being here it just makes America seem more ignorant. Walcunt.

Couldn't this asshole have quietly killed himself and left everyone else out of his mid-life crisis?

You must be kidding. That's now how mass murderers think. And since you are confused; a midlife crisis is when you blow $200K on a new 360 Modena. Psychotic episodes are when your neighbor's dog convinces you to take out a K-Mart witha flame thrower. There is a huge difference between those two situations.

Thank you for explaining how a mass murderer thinks, though.

You jackmormons should stick with shit that is less complicated than sarcasm. Maybe run with finger painting or playing on the front stoop with a Slinky.
