California mass shooting victim survived Las Vegas

A man who survived America’s worst mass shooting, in Las Vegas last year, was among those killed in the California gun massacre this week.

Telemachus Orfanos, 27, a US Navy veteran, was among 12 people shot dead at a bar in Thousand Oaks, outside Los Angeles, on Wednesday. This came 13 months after 58 people died when a gunman opened fire at a country music festival in Las Vegas.

President Donald Trump yesterday described the gunman, an ex-marine who died in the attack, as a “very sick puppy” who had “a lot of problems”.
