Update: Marine veteran Ian David Long, 28, was identified as the shooter who killed twelve people at a Thousand Oaks bar popular with college students. According to reports, Long used a .45 caliber handgun in the incident and was found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound inside of the bar.
Ventura County Sheriff Geoff Dean revealed that police had contact with Long over the years, as he was a victim of a battery at a local Thousand Oaks bar and was involved in two traffic accidents. Police were also called to his home in Newbury Park in 2018 for a domestic incident where he was "somewhat irate and acting irrationally."
