Questions still remain as to why the gunman went on the rampage.
Tran legally owned two other weapons, Luna said. One was a Norinco 7.62x25mm pistol — with which Tran killed himself.
The other weapon was a Savage Arms .308-caliber bolt-action rifle that was seized during a search of Tran’s Hemet home, in a mobile home park in the 5000 block of W. Florida Ave., Sunday night, Luna said. It was during that search investigators found ammunition and materials that authorities believe enabled the manufacturing of homemade firearm suppressors.Luna said late Wednesday there is no known connection between the gunman and any of the victims.
He noted that Tran was unmarried and that investigators had not found any romantic ties to any of the victims, adding that Tran had not been to the dance studio for at least five years. Tran had gone to the Hemet police two weeks prior and said his family had tried to poison him some 10 to 20 years ago, authorities said Monday. Tran stated he would return to the station with documentation regarding his allegations but never returned, authorities said.They ranged in age from their 50s to their 70s. The hub is known as a place where many students of Chinese descent came together to dance.
