A nighttime drive-by shooting in a student enclave next to the University of California, Santa Barbara left seven people dead -- including a suspect -- and several wounded, authorities said.
The gunfire broke out around 9:30 p.m. Friday in the Isla Vista neighborhood, the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's office said. Spokeswoman Kelly Hoover told KEYT-TV a second suspect was detained.
The circumstances surrounding the shootings were not immediately clear, but the station said police cordoned off four crime scenes. They include a deli whose glass window was shattered.
A student told the station he saw shots fired from a BMW, fatally striking one woman and critically injuring another woman.
"I heard shots, scream, pain," Michael Vitak said. "All emotions. I hope she is going to be fine."
The station said a black BMW slammed into as many as two cars.
The shooting prompted officials to issue alerts urging people to stay indoors.
Isla Vista is known for parties, including an annual spring bash that turned into a violent blowout last month as young people clashed with police and tossed rocks and bottles. A university police officer and four deputies were injured and 130 people were arrested.

If this is the guy, he’s definitely not hitting on all cylinders. Angry young man!
He was not stable. I read some of his posts/threads/blog/videos. These all focus on why he can’t seem to find “love”.

I get the picture
the ironic thing is, she seems to be safer in Thailand (which she left already) than in her apartment, which is on the same street that these shootings took place...
His dad was 2nd unit director for hunger games.
the pajamadeen is dead on FR!
Sounds like schizophrenia which tends to surface in men in their late teens-early 20s. His family probably saw signs but were in denial.
His stepmother is on the French version of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. (something like that)
I wonder.
From his blogspot: I consider myself a sophisticated, polite gentleman, unlike most boys my age. My father is of British descent, and my mother is of Asian descent, so that makes me a Eurasian. I enjoy hiking, exercising, watching sunsets, traveling, cars, fashion, going to nice restaurants, and going to parties. I have traveled all over the world, ever since I was a child. So far, I have visited ten countries, including Great Britain, the United States, France, Spain, Greece, Germany, Mexico, Singapore, Malaysia, and Morocco.
“because his parents saw them”. And they didn’t go to the police after chaining their crazy son to a bed?
WTH? What is wrong with them. If it was my son, I would have done that long before. THEY KNEW!!
The father’s wife is from Morocco. Not sure if it is the shooters mother or step-mother though
Reddit got it from another site...4c-—. not going to mention it here!
I have no idea, I wondered that myself.
She’s his stepmother.
Tv Show with his stepmother in it.

seen everything already, PUA, PUAhate and the conspiracy subreddit, his family’s facebook pix have been on 4c-— for hours
“I consider myself a sophisticated, polite gentleman, unlike most boys my age.”
Modest as well /s
he posted a video on one site bragging about him and his step mom being on the hunger games red carpet
yep, I don’t go there. Saw the postings of the guy’s name starting about 12:30 or so and all the rest of it before the forums started deleting. Apparently this guy was on (at least) the forum-posters’ radar for sometime. Weird posts for a year. Terrible
My kids told me not to go to 4——, and I don’t.
He has posted a vid of a party at their home (3 years ago). There were GIRLS at his party.
“he posted a video on one site bragging about him and his step mom being on the hunger games red carpet”
So his parents bought him sophistication? He showed how sophisticated and polite he was in how he went out...
