we hear about far too often, but today it has hit home here in the county. speaking >> speaking with cnn, the mayor of monterey park -- the feeling of disbelief watching the tragedies unfold so soon one after another. >> my heart goes out to the community of half moon bay because i know exactly what they are going through as i was watching the press conference, it was an eerie déjà vu. i can imagine in their community, like in monterey park, the ceilings are of disbelief, why is this happening in our community, and a shark, just a sadness over a tragedy of loss of life and more violence. >> and for more on this, i am joined now by salvatore hernandez, a writer at the los angeles times. thank you so much for talking

with us. >> thank you for having me. >> 39 mass shootings in this country since the start of the, year three of those in the state of california in just the past three days. you've been covering monday's mass shooting in half moon bay where the suspect has been caught after killing it least seven people, what more are you learning about this? >> well we are learning that the suspected shooter, 67 year old -- authorities believe that he is a worker from either one of the farms, or one of the nurseries nearby the area where he but they also believe that some of the victims in there are often laborers as well. >> what are officials saying about a possible motive here? >> we do not have any information about the motives at this moment, but we do know is that the officials

suspecting that he may be a worker from the nearby area and farms in that area were also targeted, this is looking like a possible workplace shooting, at this moment what is social chilling of course is that it comes a couple of days after the monterey park shooting. so, what more are you learning about this 67-year-old suspect who is now in custody? >> we do not know much at this moment. we know that he was possibly a worker from that area, a sororities are still trying to figure out which one of the two locations that he targeted first. what we do know is that he apparently drove to one of the locations, opened fire in front of children, and then got back in his car and drove into the second location where he again opened fire on some workers out there. now we are having is seven fatalities and one person who is still with life-threatening

injuries in the hospital. >> what impact has this mass shooting had on the people of half moon bay? of course, all three shootings in the whole of the state. >> well, it is definitely a very shattering and traumatizing time for the people of california. on saturday we had the monterrey park shooting, that was targeting asian american community here, it's a suburb filled with asian americans. half moon bay, one of the supervisor could tell us that it seems that some of the workers out there were chinese workers out there in the community, so this is not just hitting hard with california, but it is hitting hard with the asian american community here in the state. >> salvador not only have we got our viewers in the united states watching but also our global viewers. for a lot of them it is very difficult to grasp what this

country goes through on a daily basis, with these shootings. as i mentioned at the start, 39 mass shootings since the start of the new year. it has only been three weeks in. how do we explain that as people who live in this country, and you learn american, how do you explain that to viewers watching, what this country is grappling with? >> it is extremely difficult and i think if you see what some of the public officials have stated during some of these incidents, they are having a very hard time grasping it. the shooting from saturday, the people are still reeling from that. we are still learning some of the names from the 11 victims out there, and then this shooting took place. governor gavin newsom, he mentioned that he was at the hospital seeing some of the victims from that shooting when he was alerted about the half moon bay shooting today. it has been just a couple of hours ago that we learned that

there is another shooting in oakland where there is, i think there are seven victims, one who has died. it is just, there is no way to come to grips without. >> it is just unbelievably tragic and it is hard to know when americans will say enough is enough. salvatore hernandez, thank you so much for joining us, we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> in the meantime in southern california the death toll has risen to 11 in the mass shooting that rocked the city of monterey park over the weekend, where also hearing from a man who is being hailed a hero for confronting and disarming the gunman after he showed up at a second dance studio on saturday night. cnn has obtained this exclusive footage showing random -- approaching the suspect after he entered the studio in alejandro with a weapon. it also captures a struggle

between the two that begins in the doorway and then continues just outside of that room. he says that he sprang into action after realizing there was an imminent threat, take a listen. >> i'm not going to lie, i did freeze up when i saw him with the gun, i had many thoughts where i would think i'm going to die, this is it, this is the end for me. but then something happened, something came over me. i just had this barrage of thought and adrenaline and in this sort of situation, and i was able to come to the conclusion that i needed to do something. i needed to grab the gun. i need to save myself and the people inside. >> extraordinary actions there. the 11 victims of the dance hall shooting in monterey park will be remembered and honored during a vigil monday night. the california lawmaker who represents the district spoke

about brandon say, and his heroic actions to stop the gunman. >> he is only 26 years old and yet, when he saw the shooter come in with the gun he, a very humble and modest young man, actually took him on, actually fought with him to wrestle control of the gun. if he had not done that a number of victims, i think would have been twice as many. >> police are revealing new details of the investigation into the monterey park shooting, but still do not know what motivated the gunman opened fire. the los angeles county sheriff says that the gunman fired 42 rounds during the massacre at the dance studio saturday night, and that the gunman's home, investigators found a rifle and hundreds of rounds of

tragedy upon tragedy. joining that hospital visit, the community gives him hope in's resilience. he was also critical of the lack of action taken on gun reform, take a listen. >> it is a disgrace, what they say what these people say every single night. there is the interval via, racial profiling, what they've done to perpetuate crime in this country by scapegoating and by doing not a thing about gun safety, it is not the right time, it is not the right time. rinse and repeat, not the right time. sandy hook, not the right time. uvalde, remember uvalde? rinse repeat. you don't remember the borderline here, 13 people, that was a few years ago. why not? rinse repeat. not a thing that they do. and we know it, and we allow it them to get away with it. >> governor newsom also met with brandon tsay the man who

new ones, passing some basic common sense gun laws would be one thing that you could be doing right now and that is something that has to be done. it's not going to solve everything, it's not gonna prevent every gun shooting, but it is something that can be done. rather than always being so reactive as this one's doing this, this one is doing that, it's a mental health issue. sure, there are lots of mental health issues, they need to be addressed, but you cannot sort of be doing one thing at the time. you need to press forward because it's not just a reactive situation. >> california lawmaker mark berman spoke with cnn about the rampant gun violence in america and the emotional impact it is having on children. here is what he said. >> i had a couple of school classes up in the capitol last year and when i asked them, what is the one thing that you want to change in your community there are two different groups. the first group, these are fourth grade students, ten year olds. the first group the first thing they said was no more shootings
