The California Post has obtained a video purportedly showing the San Diego mosque shooters carrying out their deadly attack.
The footage, reviewed by the Daily Caller, appears to show the shooting suspects, 17-year-old Cain Clark and 18-year-old Caleb Velasquez, preparing to enter the Islamic Center of San Diego on Monday. The California Post refers to Caleb’s surname as “Velasquez,” though outlets such as The New York Times and ABC30 News refer to his surname as “Vazquez.” The Daily Caller was unable to verify the correct spelling of the suspect’s surname.
The suspects appear to be wearing camouflage-print outfits and vests with “Black Sun” patches, a symbol associated with Nazi Germany. Words written in white are scrawled on the firearms. A swastika is visibly drawn on one of the guns. (RELATED: Mosque Shooter Identified As Apparent Neo-Nazi With Hispanic Name)

The men enter the Islamic Center and allegedly fire repeatedly. At one point, the men seem to be standing over a body lying in a pool of blood. Three people died in the shooting, The California Post reported, citing San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl.

The video eventually shows what appears to be Clark sitting in the driver’s seat, holding a pistol. He seems to be bleeding from his mouth. He shoots something off camera. The California Post speculates this is the moment Clark shot his accomplice. The suspect then shoots himself in the head, slumping over.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) claims the shooters met online and left behind a “manifesto,” according to Komo News.
“They didn’t discriminate on who they hated,” said Mark Remily, special agent in charge of the FBI’s San Diego Field Office.
The FBI reportedly believes the suspects shared a “broad hatred” of various races and religions.
A 75-page manifesto circulating online purports to be written by “Caleb” and Clark. It is unknown whether this is the manifesto referenced by the FBI.
The manifesto reads: “Everyone has their own idea of who is to blame for all the wrong in the world, they will say its the government, the elite, the rich, the politicians, the 1%, the left, the right, the capitalists, the communists, the illuminati, the f*gs and trannies, the immigrants, and many more. All of them can be traced back to be or be caused by one group, the jews.”
“IT’S THE JEWS,” the portion of the manifesto attributed to “Caleb” reads.
“After the Jew the most evil creature in this world is the woman,” the manifesto continues later. The text also refers to Muslims as the “Bioweapons of the [Jewish slur].”
“Let me preface this by saying I don’t hate Muslims, at least not really. What I do hate is the religion of Islam itself and what I hate more than that is seeing them here, invading my country,” it reads.
Another section is titled “F**gots and Trannies.”
“What do I think of them? Not much … For the trannies, you disgust me. You are nothing short of completely deranged and mentally ill, trying to force your delusion to become our reality.”
A paragraph from the portion of the manifesto attributed to Clark claims Muslims “must be isolated and exterminated.”
“If we are to move forward as a society, race, and species, we have to get rid of this pest. They masquerade as ‘human’ while all they do is take up space and resources, while contributing nothing to our society. The Muslims are violent and like to prey on women and children. The [Jewish slur] aren’t as violent, upfront, of course, but they still like to prey on our children and ruin us for their own benefit.”
Another part begins: “The green pastures, the lush forests, the rolling hills, and the high mountains.”
“They will all be destroyed by the greed of humanity,” the manifesto reads. The document calls for the mass-murder of various groups, using racial and ethnic slurs.
The Clark section also contains a question and answer segment.
In response to the question, “What do you want,” the text reads, “I want to burn this earth down and rebuild it into a new and better society.”
In response to, “Do you personally hate these people,” the text reads, “Yes.”
The Daily Caller has reached out to the FBI, but has yet to hear back as of publication.
