THOUSAND OAKS, Calif.—U.S. President Donald Trump said on Nov. 11 the gunman who killed 12 people in a crowded South California bar this week was a “very, very sick guy,” as investigators tried to determine what could have motivated the 28-year-old Marine combat veteran.
Even as Thousand Oaks, a suburb 40 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles, mourned the dead, the city faced a fresh threat on Nov. 11 as wildfires raged in the area, forcing thousands of people from their homes.
