“We are amazed, we don't know,” said the grandmother of the late man, who refused to name her name, in an interview on site. “He drove his father's work car. He lent it to visit his cousin.

“You have a variety of family, Samoan tonan, in the valley,” she said. “They were all together. He was on his way home. His app showed his daughter on my daughter's phone that he was at home. Immediately afterwards they heard the shots.”
