SANTA ANA, Calif.—A 68-year-old man accused of opening fire inside a Laguna Woods church, killing one person, and injuring five others in an attack was confirmed by authorities on Tuesday, May 17, to be an immigrant from Taiwan, instead of China.
Orange County Sheriff’s officials initially said David Wenwei Chou, of Las Vegas, was born in China and his family moved to Taiwan, but on Tuesday investigators determined he was born and raised in Taiwan and that over the years he developed a “grievance” against the Taiwanese community as tensions between the two countries heightened, sheriff’s spokeswoman Carrie Braun said.
