By the time police arrived at the Sports Authority store in Milpitas, California, the suspect, a 26-year-old transient, struck the victim repeatedly with a baseball bat that he had apparently picked up from store shelves. Police are looking for information from the public, but say that the killing was not gang-related and there’s no threat to the shopping public now that the suspect is in custody.
This is the third homicide in the last five years at this particular mall.
