Relatives and friends of three Sikh men who were fatally shot while playing cards at a park last week gathered Sunday to mourn their deaths, which have devastated the region’s 150,000-member Sikh community.
On Feb. 22, Ranbir Singh, 43, of San Jose allegedly opened fire on at least a dozen Sikhs. Hari Singh, 65; Kulwant Singh, 45; and Satnam Singh, 70, died of gunshot wounds. Three others were wounded. Police said the gunman died of a possible heart attack or suffocation as bystanders pinned him to the ground.
