Five people are dead, including three children, after a man opened fire inside a Sacramento-area church Monday night before turning the gun on himself. The 39-year-old gunman, who was the father of the children, then shot and killed himself inside the church, where a supervised visit was to take place. The three girls killed were 9, 10 and 13, said Sgt. Rodney Grassmann, a spokesman for the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office.
