He then proceeded to shoot himself, the reason behind the whole ordeal is still unknown.

The co-workers at Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority remember the deceased with nostalgia and share their knowledge of the incident with the reporters. The victims were men of 30- 60 years of age and had families to look after, some of them young fathers.

Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith said that the gunman was still firing when the police reached the site and he seemingly had targeted some people.
