NFL star remembers 'hero' Dr. John Cheng, killed trying to disarm California church shooter

"This case is about a person concealing themselves in plain view," Spitzer said.

Spitzer said earlier he believes that Chou intended to kill everyone inside the church, then burn the building to the ground. Barnes said Cheng, 52, a physician with South Bay Medical Group in Aliso Viejo, was "a hero in this incident," hailing him for rushing the gunman, essentially sacrificing his life while buying time for other parishioners to descend on the suspect. The pastor struck the gunman with a chair, and other parishioners held him down and hog-tied him with electrical cords, authorities said.

Barnes said investigators have determined the shooting was an isolated incident carried out solely by Chou, and the shooting was a "politically motivated hate incident." Barnes said the suspect "was upset about political tensions between China and Taiwan." Investigators were still working to determine why Chou, who was a licensed security guard in Nevada, chose the Orange County congregation to target, since he had no known ties to anyone connected with it. Barnes said there is no similar congregation in Las Vegas and the one in Orange County may have been the closest one for the suspect.

Shame Biden has not recognized this man is a hero making the ultimate sacrifice giving his life so others may live . Biden had a extra day to come to California to pay his respects , same as he did on Tuesday in NY but this shooting does not meet his political agenda , shame !

The race and ideology of that shooter again? Strangely absent from your propaganda
