John BaconThe family of a 6-year-old San Jose boy was mourning his death Monday after a gunman opened fire at a California food festival, killing three people and wounding at least 15 more, family members said.
“They told me he was in critical condition, that they were working on him,” Romero said, “Five minutes later they told me he was dead.” “I couldn’t believe what was happening, that what she was saying was a lie, that maybe I was dreaming,” said Romero. "I pray that God will grant his family strength," he said in a statement."I will keep your family close in my thoughts and prayers in the coming weeks as you are going through the process of grieving," he said in a statement."
