. I mean, can't we all just get along? This guy lost his life over a stupid argument or whatever went down. And now that house is literally nothing but ashes... it's just devastating 
. I'm glad no one else got hurt, though - that's the biggest silver lining here.
. I just wish everyone could calm down and talk things through instead of resorting to violence or destroying property. And poor family... they're gonna be dealing with this loss for a long time 
.
. Hopefully they can catch whoever did this and bring them to justice 
. It's just so sad that it had to come to this...
how can somethin go from calm 2 flames in like 1 sec?? San Bruno dont deserve dis kinda drama either... hope the police catch the person ASAP so the fam of the victim can get some closure 
gotta send love to the fam of the guy who passed away too 
.
.
the fact that someone could just go into a house and set it on fire, leaving one person dead... 
and the cops are still searching for the person responsible, but they also said there were no issues at the residence before... 
anyway, I'm just glad nobody else got hurt. 1/5 of this community was traumatized by this event... 
my friend drew a little diagram to illustrate how fast the fire spread: 
also kinda weird that cops had no prior issues at the house, hopefully they'll find out what really went down 
anyway gotta feel for the family who lost their home and loved one 
. And now the police are trying to figure out if it was all connected or just a random act of violence... ugh, my heart is still racing just thinking about it 
. I feel for the victim's family, no doubt they're going through an unimaginable time right now 
, but at least nobody was seriously hurt, right? Fingers crossed they catch whoever did this ASAP 
also, san bruno is like a super safe place, u dont hear bout much crime ther 
so it's really alarming 2 see dis happen 
The fire department is doing their thing, which is great, but let's not forget the shooter is still on the loose... or is he? 
I mean, if authorities had no prior issues at the residence, what were they expecting exactly? It's just a weird situation all around. Let's hope whoever did this turns themselves in soon 
. We need to give investigators time to get to the bottom of things and figure out what really happened. The community is shaken up for sure, but it's good that they're coming together to support each other 
. i hope the police are able to find the person responsible for this and bring them to justice ASAP 
. it's so brave of the emergency responders who risked their lives to save others 
just great, another crazy week in Cali... one thing about this whole situation tho, 3 p.m. on a Friday? Like, who even has plans at that time 
. Priorities, right? Like, who needs a home and family when you've got 'safety' 
. Anytime something like this happens it feels like such a shock and I'm sure those people are still trying to process everything 
. It's like, super scary when things happen like this - one minute you're living your life, the next there's a shooting and a fire 
.
