The lifeless body of 40‑year‑old Jonathan McKinsey, an executive at The New York Times, was found in the parking lot of a sports facility in Dublin, about 56 kilometres west of San Francisco, with numerous gunshot wounds.

Eyewitnesses said they heard gunshots one after another, then saw McKinsey on the ground. One witness noted that there was bleeding from the head and chest.

Police arrested Shouyong Zhang and Shili Chen after the incident. The 77‑year‑old couple faces a range of charges, including first‑degree murder.
