The heinous mass shootings that took place on Monday, January 23, where 7 people lost their lives and one was injured at a farm in Half Moon Bay, have left not only a county, but the entire state of California in shock and concern about the increase in these violent acts.

From Pensula 360 Press, we offer our condolences to the families and friends of the victims of these shootings that, we know, make no sense.

Please note that completing the survey does not guarantee that the region or property owner will be eligible for disaster assistance.
