3 men have been killed at a San Diego mosque and both suspects are dead

(AP) Three men were killed in a shooting at a San Diego mosque Monday and both suspects are dead, police said. Both suspects are believed to be teens and the case is considered to be a hate crime, San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl said at a news conference. The shooting happened at the Islamic Center of San Diego, the largest mosque in San Diego County. The Islamic Center is about 9 miles (14 km) north of downtown San Diego. The Islamic Center is the largest mosque in San Diego County, according to its website. The campus includes the Al Rashid School, which the website says offers courses in Arabic language, Islamic studies and the Quran. Aerial TV footage showed more than a dozen children holding hands and being walked out of the parking lot of the center that is surrounded by scores of police vehicles. The white mosque is in a neighborhood of homes, apartments and strip malls with Middle Eastern restaurants and markets.
