A shooting at Feather River Adventist School in Oroville, California, left two students critically injured. The suspect, Glenn Litton, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound after the attack on Wednesday. Authorities believe Litton viewed the shooting as a response to U.S. involvement in conflicts related to Palestinians. He reportedly referred to his actions as a "countermeasure" against perceived oppression. Investigators are looking into claims of an "International Alliance" linked to the attack but have found no evidence of such an organization. The sheriff noted that Litton had significant mental health issues, which may have influenced his actions.
