San Bernardino came together to mourn Monday evening as the community once again faced recovery from tragic violence that took innocent lives.
This time, an elementary school classroom full of special needs children saw their teacher and one of their classmates fatally shot before the gunman turned his weapon on himself. Another student was wounded.
Police said Cedric Anderson, 53, of Riverside, went to North Park Elementary School at 10:30 a.m. Monday and shot his estranged wife, Karen Elaine Smith, also 53. Two students behind her were wounded, and one Jonathan Martinez, 8, died while a 9-year-old boy was wounded.
