New details have been released about a shooting which left a woman dead, and hundreds in shock at a Ventura County mall.
Ventura County Sheriff’s detectives confirm their initial theory that Saturday afternoon’s shootings in a store at The Oaks mall in Thousand Oaks was a murder followed by a suicide attempt. They say Kevin Crane shot to death his ex-wife, Parisa Siddiqui, and then critically wounded himself .
The sound of the shots prompted hundreds of shoppers to run from the area. Others sheltered in place in stores, as employees locked doors because of fears that someone with a gun might randomly be targeting people in the mall.
Aside from the two Thousand Oaks residents directly involved in the shooting, no one else was hurt.
