LOS ANGELES, CA — Vice President Kamala Harris arrived at Los Angeles
International Airport Wednesday afternoon and is en route to Monterey Park to
visit with the families affected by Saturday's mass shooting that took 11
lives.
The Vice President's motorcade may halt traffic, and motorists could face
rush hour delays as Harris makes her way across the county. For safety
reasons, authorities do not publicize the vice presidential motorcade route.
Visits by Harris frequently entail Westside road closures when she stays at
her home in Brentwood.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and county Sheriff Robert Luna were among those
greeting Harris at LAX Wednesday.
Eleven people were shot and killed in the Monterey Park mass shooting
Saturday, and the death toll from subsequent mass shootings in California
quickly piled up to 24 this week.
"As we grieve Saturday's mass shooting in California, we already face two
more this week alone in Half Moon Bay and Oakland," Harris tweeted Tuesday.
"Tomorrow I will visit Monterey Park to stand and mourn with the community."
The families of victims Mymy Nhan, 65; Valentino Marcos Alvero, 68; Lilan Li,
63; and Xiujuan Yu, 57, Ming Wei Ma, 72; Muoi Dai Ung, 67; Hongying Jian, 62;
Yu Lun Kao, 72; Chia Ling Yau, 76; Wen Tau Yu, 64; and Diana Man Ling Tom, 70
are forever changed this week.
The shooting took place Saturday night at Star Dance Studio. Ten victims died
at the scene, while another died Monday at a hospital, according to
authorities.
Harris follows Gov. Gavin Newsom, who was in a Los Angeles County hospital
visiting with victims' families when news of another shooting in Half Moon
Bay broke Monday night.
President Joe Biden also acknowledged the tragedies and said he has been
having discussions with local officials including county Supervisor Hilda
Solis and Rep. Judy Chu, D-Claremont, in addition to Gov. Gavin Newsom.
"We're working out a number of things that we can and are going to be doing,"
he said.
