Three people were killed in a shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego on Monday, and two suspected shooters were found dead inside a vehicle nearby, San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl said.

One of the three people killed by two teen shooters at a San Diego mosque was a beloved security guard who acted quickly to prevent more deaths, authorities and community members said.

The three victims have been identified as Amin Abdullah, Nader Awad and Mansour Kaziha, a spokeswoman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations-San Diego (Cair-SD), Tazheen Nizam, told the BBC.
