Overview

The 2019 Poway Synagogue Shooting was a mass shooting that occurred at the Chabad of Poway synagogue in Poway, California in late April 2019. One woman was killed by a gunman armed with an assault rifle, while three others suffered non-fatal injuries in the attack.

Background

On April 27, 2019, 19-year old John T. Earnest fired shots inside the Chabad of Poway synagogue in Poway, California, on the last day of the Jewish Passover holiday. [1] One woman died and three other people were injured.[2]

Developments

Suspect

The San Diego County Sheriff's Department identified John T. Earnest, a 19-year-old nursing student from the Rancho Penasquitos suburb of San Diego, California, as the suspect. In his manifesto that he posted on 8chan, the author blames Jews for the supposed "meticulously planned genocide of the European race". He praised gunman Brenton Tarrant for his role in the Christchurch mosque shootings in his manifesto and condemned Donald Trump as a Zionist.[3]
