Both were shot in the head.<\/p>\n<p>An elderly woman was the third victim and appeared to be the third. \u201cshot in her sleep,\u201d Boudreaux said. Three men were also shot to death, one of which was alive at the time deputies arrived. He died later in hospital. One of the victims was severely injured by the weapons used in the attack, so DNA testing will be required to identify him.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Times, two women were able to escape the attack by hiding inside a trailer house. Police were told that they saw the shooters approach via surveillance cameras.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey could see two men sneaking onto the property \u2026 but by the time they came on [the video feed], it was too late to do anything,\u201d Boudreaux said.<\/p>\n<p>Eddie Valero, county supervisor, said that the deaths were \u201ceveryone\u2019s worst nightmare.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese senseless acts of violence, especially with infants, children and young adults, have no place in our communities,\u201d Valero stated this in a statement to The Times.<\/p>\n<p>Police said that they believed there were two shooters, and that the incident was connected to gang activity. The Visalia Times Delta reports that authorities continue to look for clues to the motive behind the shooting.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.visaliatimesdelta.com\/story\/news\/2023\/01\/16\/multiple-dead-in-goshen-gang-shooting-including-infant\/69811812007\/\">reported<\/a>.
