An eviction hearing at an American Indian headquarters in Northern California turned deadly as a woman who once served as a tribal leader allegedly opened fire, killing four people and critically wounding two others in a gun and knife attack.
Rhoades allegedly pulled out a gun and shot four people and a fifth person who tried to flee.
After running out of bullets, authorities said, Rhoades grabbed a butcher knife and stabbed a person.
One person escaped the building, covered in victims’ blood, and ran to the police station to alert the authorities.
When officers arrived, Barnes said, the suspect was outside the building, running and clutching a knife in her hands, but a Rancheria employee helped tackle her and she was quickly subdued and brought into custody.
Authorities said she faces murder and attempted murder charges.
