San Bernardino county to reopen for business after attacks
- 8 years ago
Thousands of employees of San Bernardino County are preparing to return to work Monday, five days after a county restaurant inspector and his wife opened fire on a gathering of his co-workers, killing 14 people and wounding 21.
The reopening of much of the government's offices signals an effort to return to normalcy for a community that has been in shock and mourning since the killings Wednesday.
On Sunday, residents gathered at a church, a mosque, a makeshift street-corner memorial and other sites to mourn the victims and call for the community to unite in mourning and not be divided by the disclosure that the killers were a religious Muslim couple.
President Barack Obama delivered a prime-time address Sunday night, telling the nation the attack was an "act of terrorism designed to kill innocent people."
