Authorities in California are trying to figure out why a teenager killed three people, including two children, at a popular food festival south of San Francisco before being shot dead by police.
加利福尼亚当局正在试图查明一名十九岁青年在旧金山以南的一个热闹的美食节期间开枪杀人的作案动机。他打死了三人，包括两名孩子，随后被警方击毙。
The shooter, identified as 19-year-old Santino William Legan, appeared to randomly target people with an "assault-type rifle" on the last day of the Gilroy Garlic festival Sunday, according to Gilroy Police Chief Scot Smithee.
当局查明枪手是19岁的桑迪诺·威廉·勒甘(Santino William Legan)。星期日(7月28日)，他在“吉尔洛伊大蒜节”的最后一天手持一支“攻击型步枪”行凶。据吉尔洛伊警察局局长斯科特·史密西(Scot Smithee)说，凶手似乎是没有特别目标地随意杀人。
加州吉尔洛伊大蒜节发生枪击惨案后，警方护送民众离开现场。The dead included a six-year-old boy, a 13-year-old girl and a man in his 20s. Twelve other festival-goers were wounded in the attack.
死者包括一名六岁男孩、一名13岁女孩和一名20几岁的男子。还有12名参加节日的人受伤。
Smithee told reporters Monday that police responded in less than a minute of the shooter opening fire.
史密西星期一(7月29日)对记者说，警方在凶手开火后不到一分钟就做出反应。
"It could have gone so much worse so fast," he said.
他说：“局势本有可能很快就严重恶化。”
Authorities said they were searching Monday for a possible second suspect, following unconfirmed reports by eyewitnesses that Legan may have had an accomplice.
当局说，他们星期一查找可能存在的第二名嫌疑人，在这之前，来自目击者的未经核实的报告说，勒甘可能有一名同伙。
The food festival, in the agricultural city of Gilroy about 170 kilometers (106 miles) southeast of San Francisco, had security that required people to go through screening with metal detectors and bag checks. Police say the shooter cut through a fence to avoid the security checks.
大蒜节在农业城市吉尔洛伊举行，当地位于旧金山东南大约170公里。节日有保安措施，要求人们必须通过有金属探测器和查看背包的安检。警方说，凶手穿过了一道围栏，绕过了安检。
Police believe Legan legally purchased his weapon in Nevada this month. They say his motive is still not known.
警方相信，勒甘是上个月合法在内华达州购买的武器。他们表示目前仍不清楚他的作案动机。
President Donald Trump on Monday expressed deep "sadness and sorrow" over the incident. "While families were spending time together at a local festival, a wicked murderer opened fire and killed three innocent citizens, including a young child. We grieve for their families," he said.
美国总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)星期一对这一事件深表悲伤。他说：“在家庭欢聚在当地节日的时刻，一个邪恶的杀人凶手开枪杀害了三名无辜的公民，包括一名幼童。我们为他们的家人而悲痛。”
California Governor Gavin Newsom said in a tweet that he was grateful for the police response to the shooting and called the attack "nothing short of horrific."
加州州长加文·纽索姆(Gavin Newsom，又译纽森)发推说，他感谢警方对枪击事件迅速做出的反应，并称袭击只能用“可怕”来形容。
The three-day garlic festival attracts around 100,000 people each year and features food and drink, cooking competitions and live music.
历时三天的大蒜节每年吸引大约10万人，节日期间有食物和饮料、烹饪比赛和现场音乐表演。
Smithee said the festival relies on thousands of volunteers each year and raises money for various organizations in the community.
史密西说，节日每年依赖数以千计的志愿者的支持，并为社区各个组织募捐。
"I think that the number of people that are willing to give their time for the betterment of other people is a wonderful thing. It is just incredibly sad and disheartening that an event that does so much good for our community has to suffer from a tragedy like this," he said.
他说：“我认为，这么多的人愿意投入时间来改善他人的生活，这是一件美好的事情。这场为我们的社区做了这么多好事的活动竟然要蒙受这样的悲剧，这太让人悲哀和心碎了。”
