A 6-year-old boy was one of the three people killed when a gunman opened fire Sunday at the Gilroy Garlic Festival, a family event southeast of San Jose that he attended with his mother and grandmother.
Alberto Romero told NBC Bay Area that his son Stephen was killed. Romero expressed his grief outside a hospital, where his wife and the boy's grandmother were being treated for injuries suffered in the attack.
"My son had his whole life to live and he was only 6," his father Alberto Romero told NBC Bay Area. "That's all I can say."
Alberto Romero, who was home with his 9-year-old daughter at the time of the shooting, said his son had just celebrated his sixth birthday at LEGOLAND California Theme Park.
