Reporters inspect the home of San Bernardino shooters
Onlookers were left scratching their heads when reporters stampeded the home of San Bernardino shooters Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik – grabbing personal items in a frenzy to get them on the air.
Apparently, the landlord let members of the media inside the house, providing unprecedented access so quickly after a killing spree.
Authorities have identified Farook and his wife, the 27-year-old Malik, as the gunmen who opened fire during a holiday party for county employees at Inland Regional Center, a facility for persons with disabilities about 60 miles east of Los Angeles. The rampage left 14 dead and 21 injured.
Viewers watching live-stream footage from within the home – provided by CNN, MSNBC and other outlets – expressed disbelief that the news media would be given free reign over an active crime scene.
The awkward house tours showed broadcasters rummaging through the Farook family’s photos, books, drivers licenses, shredded documents, toys and other personal items. (Michael Walsh/Yahoo News)
