The man suspected of Monday’s mass shooting in Half Moon Bay that left seven people dead and another injured is expected to be charged with several felonies Wednesday, including seven counts of murder.
Chunli Zhao, 66, was arrested Monday after two shootings in separate locations killed seven farm workers on Monday afternoon. In a news conference Tuesday, San Mateo County officials said the shootings were believed to be a case of “workplace violence.”
Wednesday morning, San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said the county will be filing a complaint charging Zhao with seven counts of murder, one count of attempted murder, firearm use enhancements for each count and a special circumstance allegation of multiple murder.
Zhao is expected to be arraigned at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday.
