Farm worker in court to face seven murder charges after California massacre


A farm worker is set to appear in court to face seven charges of murder after a mass shooting in the US.

Chunli Zhao, 66, is accused of shooting dead five men and two women in what police have described as a “workplace violence incident”.

Four people were found dead and one wounded at a mushroom farm on Monday. Three others were later found dead at a separate location two miles away.

The chilling events unfolded in Half Moon Bay, a coastal city in Northern California.

Zhao is due in court for arraignment at 1.30pm PT (9.30pm GMT) today.
