SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) The gunman who killed his three daughters, a chaperone who was supervising his visit with the children and himself in a Northern California church this week was armed with an unregistered ghost gun, authorities said Friday.
David Mora, 39, was armed with a homemade semiautomatic rifle-style weapon. He had an illegal 30-round ammunition magazine and 17 bullets were fired, the Sacramento County Sheriffs Office said.
Mora was under a restraining order that barred him from possessing a firearm and authorities do not know how or when he obtained it.

The Sacramento church where the killings occurred had been Moras home since he was released from an involuntary mental health hold in April 2021 after threatening to harm himself and his estranged girlfriend, investigators said.
