A man who opened fire inside an El Cajon dental office, killing one person and injuring two others, was a"disgruntled former customer" who purchased the gun used in the altercation just two weeks ago, El Cajon police said Friday.
Another man in his 40s and a woman in her 20s were transported to the hospital with serious injuries. Their current condition was not known but El Cajon police said they were"stable" Thursday night. The shooter fled the scene in a rented white U-Haul pickup truck with an Arizona license plate. El Cajon police were quickly able to capture an image of the vehicle with the city's Flock traffic camera system and alert the public an"armed and dangerous" suspect was on the loose, the agency said in a news briefing.
It went on to say,"At this point, there is nothing to suggest that this incident was a hate crime, and authorities have not indicated that hate or prejudice were motivating factors in this devastating event. We trust in the investigative process and will await further information to fully understand what transpired."
