True Crime
On December 24, 2008, a frantic 911 call came in to Covina, California dispatch. The caller begged for emergency services stating “he’s still shooting out there. He’s shooting my whole family. My mom’s house is on fire!” Just before the attack, neighbors saw a man dressed as Santa Claus approach the house on Knollcrest Drive carrying what looked like gifts.
