New dashcam video shows the San Diego mosque shooters driving through a residential neighborhood and firing several shots after their racist rampage that left three people dead<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The teen attacker, Cain Clark and Caleb Vazquez, had opened fire on the Islamic Center of San Diego and were minutes away from claiming their own lives when they unleashed even more violence on the community.<\/p>\n

Footage shows shots being fired from the suspects\u2019 car, a white BMW, as a dad runs for safety while pushing a child in a stroller. <\/p>\n

The dad, Jose, described the terrifying incident to Fox 5 San Diego<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cRight when I got about here, I heard a loud bang. It sounded like a gunshot, but when I looked left, the second gunshot shattered the windshield,\u201d Jose said, as the footage shown the car\u2019s driver\u2019s side window being shattered by the gunfire.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear if the shooters hit a nearby landscaper, who fell as he was trimming a tree in a homeowner\u2019s yard.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was lying right here,\u201d the homeowner told Fox 5 San Diego. \u201cHe took his helmet off, there was blood, but no gunshot wound. I think maybe his helmet impact or the glass, we are not sure.\u201d<\/p>\n

The homeowner said the man was shaken but survived.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe said that he had said a prayer on the way out of the house that morning and someone was definitely looking out for him,\u201d the homeowner added.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the second shooting, the teenagers coordinated to kill each other, with Clark shooting Vazquez before turning the gun on himself.<\/p>\n

Both shooters penned a manifesto that indicated their bigoted views.<\/p>\n

The unhinged dispatch contains scattershot derogatory and racist views targeting a number of groups \u2014 including Muslims, Jews and gay people, among others \u2014 and described hopes to to instigate an \u201call-out race war\u201d to bring about the collapse of society.<\/p>\n

Mansour Kaziha, Nader Awad, and\u00a0security guard Amin Abdullah<\/a>\u00a0were named as the three victims of the mosque shooting. Abdullah was praised for his actions\u00a0in helping to prevent further casualties.<\/p>\n

\u201dWe do believe the security guard was able to help at least minimize the situation to the front area of the mosque,\u201d San Diego police chief\u00a0Scott Wahl\u00a0said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New dashcam video shows the San Diego mosque shooters driving through a residential neighborhood and firing several shots…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":810313,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5134],"tags":[5229,1582,276,5248,62465,3549,7264,3677,67,586,132,5230,68,1154,2969],"class_list":["post-810312","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-diego","tag-america","tag-ca","tag-california","tag-metro","tag-mosque","tag-san-diego","tag-sandiego","tag-shootings","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-us-news","tag-usa"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116608079489817193","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/810312","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=810312"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/810312\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/810313"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=810312"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=810312"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=810312"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
