Four dead in California shooting spree By GILLIAN FLACCUS Associated Press TUSTIN, Calif. — A shooting spree early Tuesday left three people dead and two others injured in Orange County, and the search for the gunman ended when he shot himself to death in a stolen car as police closed in, authorities said. There were multiple crime scenes in Tustin and Orange and many more victims who were shot at but unhurt, said Tustin Lt. Paul Garaven. The shootings began at 4:45 a.m. when deputies responding to a call found a female shot multiple times in a house in Ladera Ranch, said Orange County sheriff’s spokesman Jim Amormino. The city is in the southern part of the suburban county about 30 miles south of Los Angeles. From 5:30-5:55 a.m., Tustin police received police reports of shootings in sever- al locations, Tustin police Supervisor Dave Kanoti. The suspect is a male, although Garaven couldn’t confirm his age. He didn’t have the sexes of all the vic- tims, whose conditions were unknown at press time. C M Y K

This way expenditures would be stable and staff can make projections. “Like how much Haven Comfort Shoes; 5.542"; 10.5"; Process color; -; 00027760 money will be needed to pay for (operational) supplies and salaries. It will make it easier to present reports to the council. We can say, ‘This is what we spent, this is what we have.’ The rest will be used for what is intended.” Elwell said that while the TDC has shortchanged arts and culture in the past, he did not feel that would hap- pen again. For one thing, he said, the arts has received the funding it was owed in 2012. “They are sitting on $150,000 to $200,000 that they are afraid to use,” Elwell said. “All tourism assets must be mar- keted. We will not ignore art and culture.” The HCA, however, has its own plans — some of them big. Leavitt said the council has a five-goal agenda, geared not just to promoting the arts, but drawing out-of- county people to Highlands, whether to visit or stay. Among the more ambi- tious plans are to create an Acoustic (Folk) Music & Art Festival, a Literary Festival, establish a Peter Powell Robert’s Museum, and pro- moting the county as a Florida art and cultural cen- ter. “Four new galleries have opened in the past few months,” Leavitt said. And a local exhibit by local artists who have worked together to create the Lake Wales Ridge Project, an art show that is scheduled to tour throughout Florida, at the request of the state’s public libraries.
