Oikos University Shooting: At Least 7 People Dead In Incident

Police say the suspect in a deadly shooting attack at a small Christian university in Oakland had been upset because he was teased about his poor English skills.

Oakland Police Chief Howard Jordan said Tuesday that the teasing was one of the motivations for 43-year-old One Goh's shooting rampage at Oikos University. Monday's attack killed seven people and wounded three others.

Jordan earlier said Goh also was targeting a female administrator at the school, where he was expelled for possible behavior problems.

Jordan says Goh appears to have planned the attack for several weeks.

Jordan said there were about 35 people in or near the building when gunfire broke out. Of the seven fatalities, five died at the scene and another two at the hospital. The wounded victims are in stable condition, and at least one person was released from the hospital. They were from various countries, including Nigeria, Nepal and the Phillipines.
