Surveillance video from inside the Lai Lai Ballroom in Alhambra shows the moments a man disarmed Huu Can Tran, the gunman suspected of killing eleven people.

Video shows the 72-year-old gunman hiding in the corner of what appears to be the entryway of the ballroom. A civilian, later identified as, sees Tran and wrestles him for his gun. Within a minute or two, Tsay was able to successfully disarm Tran. The suspect then walks away as Tsay grabs his phone to call for help.

"It was Chinese New Years. We were hosting a social dance party. I was in the lobby, it was late into the evening, most of our customers already left. I wasn’t paying attention to the front door, I was looking into the dance ballroom, the dance floor," Tsay, who is an employee of the Lai Lai Ballroom said. "This is when I heard the sound of the front door creaking closing, instantly followed by the sound of a metal object clinking together as if they were rubbing.

Tsay said Tran, whom he did not recognize, was "looking around the room... like he was looking for targets, people to harm."Brandon Tsay, the man who disarmed Huu Can Tran in an Alhambra dance hall after Tran allegedly shot and killed 10 in Monterey Park said he wants the focus to be on the victims of the shooting and their grieving families.

Did he say he wasn't aware of the shooting in Dance Studio? I thought someone from Dance Studio called Lai Lai to warn about the first shooting. Did I mishear some news?

That's just Brandon Tsay, being a hero.
