Police have identified the gunman, who killed five people and put 10 others in the hospital in Rancho Tehama on Tuesday, as Kevin Janson Neal, 43. Tehama County Assistant Sheriff Phil Johnston said Neal had assembled two semi-automatic rifles he used himself, adding that they were “obtained in an illegal manner.”

It was initially thought that five people had died in the incident, including Neal. But Johnston said in an update on Wednesday that an additional body had been found — Neal’s wife. He said that her body was found under the floor in Neal’s home, and that police believe it’s “what started this whole event.”
