SEAL BEACH, Calif. — Six people were shot to death and three others wounded at a hair salon on Wednesday in a normally sedate Southern California beach community, Orange County authorities said. One suspect was in custody.

The shooting occurred at Salon Meritage around 1:30 p.m. in the 500 block of the Pacific Coast Highway, Capt. Mark Stone of the Orange County Fire Authority told NBC LA.

Three victims were rushed to Long Beach Memorial Hospital, reportedly in critical condition.

Victims were believed to be both employees and customers of the salon, KTLA News reported.

Police arrested a man in a white truck during a traffic stop a half-mile from the shooting scene, and police Sgt. Steve Bowles said multiple weapons were seized. He may have been wearing body armor, according to police.

"The officers identified the (suspect's) vehicle as it was leaving the location," Bowles told KCAL9 TV in Los Angeles. "They followed it and made a traffic stop and took the driver into custody."

Bowles described the suspect as cooperative.

The motive was not immediately known.

"It just caught everyone off guard and people started running outside to see what was happening," Zach Benson told NBC LA. "It was a very bizarre scene."

Relatives of victims were being taken to a nearby spiritual center, NBC LA reported.

The quiet beachfront city of approximately 25,000 residents identifies itself as the Gateway to Southern California's Orange County and is located about 30 miles southeast of Los Angeles.

It is home to Leisure World, a gated senior citizen community of 9,000 people, as well as the Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station military complex. Two-thirds of the city's 13.23 square miles are occupied by the Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge.

The city had one homicide last year and none during the previous three years, according to police statistics, the NBC affiliate reported.

The worst mass-killing in Orange County's history was in 1976, when Edward Charles Allaway, at Cal State Fullerton, shot nine people and killed seven, The Orange County Register reported.

Carrying, but what about just having them in your vehicle? People hunt and go to shooting ranges in CA, right?

Handguns have to be transported in a locked container, unloaded.

Rifles have to be unloaded and can be unlocked if you avoid 1000ft of a school.

I got it. Man is angry about stupid gun laws so he decides to protest by shooting up a hair salon where chicks go to spend their man's hard earned cash to look good for the other guy(s) they're screwing.

In spite of Spunk Bubble's protestations, it looks like the death toll has risen to 8. Still no official word on the identity of the shooter or any motive, but they're saying the shooter was the husband of one of the employees in the salon.

I bet you anything it's jealousy. You know how flirtatious those hair salon girls can get, but they're doing it for the tips.

damn that article is fucking terrible.

you go with your wife to the salon and she ends up dead.

Death toll up to 8

Marissa Pei said she had been at the gym earlier in the day with a friend before bumping into her again outside the shopping center. She was sobbing.

" ''My friend is dead. My friend is dead,’ ” Pei said the woman told her. “I held her.”

Pei said she also spoke to a man married to someone who was at the salon.

“’My baby. She’s half of me,’ ” Pei recalled him saying. “ 'Please, God, don’t let her be dead.’ ”

Says a custody dispute may have been the motive. If so that's one dumb SOB as he'll probably never see the children again now.

OK, bullshit is running rampant here.

It has NOTHING to do with gun laws. You can still get, carry, and conceal a weapon if you want to. But, as was shown here, if you ARE carrying one AND clad in something like a BPV, then most likely you are not a "law abiding citizen looking to protect themselves".

They guy had a custody battle with his wife. She just filed a restraining order on him a week ago. He gets pissed, takes his guns, walks into a salon and starts shooting everybody (because we all know THEY are responsible for his problems with his wife).

Somehow turning this into an argument about gun protection right off the bat is rather shallow and spiteful.

Just yet another example of how the seemingly endless stream of gun laws coming out of Sacramento do absolutely nothing to prevent the lawless from doing their will. You could have papered this nutbag in the current "protective legislation" and he would not have been slowed one bit. Only the law abiding abide by the law.
