SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) ? The shooting rampage in Santa Monica claimed the lives of five people and wounded several others on Friday before authorities shot and killed the gunman. Here are the stories of some of the victims who lost their lives.
SAMIR ZAWAHRI
Samir Zawahri, 55, the father of the gunman, owned the Santa Monica house where the violence began in a neighborhood tucked up against Interstate 10. He moved there with his wife and two sons in 1996 from an apartment across town, according to property records and neighbors. He and Randa Abdou, 54, married on New Year's Eve 1985, but the couple split up later, though the date of their divorce was not immediately clear from public records. Samir Zawahri bought the house from his ex-wife in 2002. Neighbors said one son lived at the house with the father and one lived with the mother in an apartment about two miles away.
CARLOS NAVARRO FRANCO
Carlos Navarro Franco, 68, and his daughter Marcela, were the first people struck at Santa Monica College when the gunman opened fire on a Ford Explorer. The shooting immediately killed the elder Franco, who plowed through a brick wall into a faculty parking lot.
He was a groundskeeper at the college for 22 years.
"Carlos was a very, very hard worker," his supervisor Tom Corpus said in a statement. "Everything Carlos did was for the college and for his family."
The Santa Monica College Foundation has started the Carlos Franco Family Memorial Fund.
"Carlos was truly a family man," Santa Monica College President Chui L. Tsang wrote in a letter to the campus community. "He was a dedicated husband and father and an integral part of the Santa Monica College family. His dedicated work to the campus grounds was enjoyed by students and visitors for two decades. He will be sorely missed."
MARCELA FRANCO
Marcela Franco, 26, and her father went to the campus Friday to purchase textbooks for her summer classes. She was gravely wounded and hospitalized at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center. She died Sunday.
"Her family was with her by her side," Tsang said in a statement posted on the school's website. "Our deepest sympathies go to the Franco family. At the appropriate time, the college will convene a campus-wide memorial."
