A gunman in a deadly attack at California church was a Chinese immigrant motivated by hate for Taiwanese people. The shooter killed Dr. John Cheng and wounded five others at a Southern California church. According to reports the motive of the shooting was a grievance between the shooter, identified as a Chinese immigrant, and the Taiwanese community. China claims Taiwan is a part of its national territory and has not ruled out force to bring the island under its rule. The suspect drove to the Orange County church, where he was not a regular attendee, secured the doors and started shooting. The gunman had placed 4 Molotov cocktail-like devices inside the church.
