Five-Year-Old Boy Clings To Life After Weekend Shooting

Police say a 5-year-old boy is on life support and in grave condition, two days after his father and brother were killed and his mother critically wounded during an attack at a fast food restaurant in Southern California.

San Bernardino police Detective Sgt. David Dillon said Monday the child’s prognosis is not good. He says the boy’s 29-year-old mother is in critical but stable condition at Loma Linda University Medical Center.

Dillon says the woman’s stepfather, 56-year-old Jimmy Schlager, opened fire on the family at a San Bernardino Del Taco on Saturday. Thirty-three-year-old Alex Trujillo and the couple’s 6-year-old son, Adrian, were killed. Schlager then killed himself.

Police say they are still working to determine the motive.
