Oakland shooting: suspect One L. Goh was targeting an Oikos University official

One L. Goh, the man who allegedly shot seven people dead and injured three more at Oikos University in Oakland, California, was targeting a female school official, police say.

One L. Goh began shooting randomly when he discovered the administrator was not there, Oakland Police Chief Howard Jordan said on Tuesday morning.

The shooting took place on Monday at Oikos University.

Suspect One L. Goh, a 43-year-old former student at the college, surrendered at a supermarket in nearby Alameda city.

He arrived at the university with the “the intent of locating an administrator. He then went through the entire building systematically and randomly shooting people,” Howard Jordan told ABC News’ Good Morning America.

“We’ve learned that the suspect was upset with the administration at the school. He was also upset that students in the past, when he attended the school, mistreated him, disrespected him, and things of that nature.

“He was having, we believe, some behavioural problems at the school and was asked to leave several months ago.”

Howard Jordan described the suspect as a “chaotic, calculated and determined gentleman”, adding that it was the gunman’s intention to kill people.

Five people died at the scene, and two people died later at the hospital. Two people remain in hospital in a stable condition and one person has been released.

According to the police chief, the victims ranged in age from 21 to 40.
