A regular night at Cook's Corner, a popular biker bar in southern California, turned into a horrific scene when a mass shooting occurred. The gunman, identified as retired police officer John Snowling, opened fire, killing three people and injuring several others. Was this shooting fueled by a domestic dispute?

Authorities say Snowling's wife, Marie Snowling, had filed for divorce in December 2022, and the proceedings were ongoing. The couple's relationship seemed to be strained, with Marie's father stating that John Snowling was a "crazy husband" who couldn't handle his wife's request for a divorce.

During the shooting, Marie Snowling was wounded but survived. There were earlier reports that she had not survived, but her father confirmed that she is recovering from her injuries at a hospital.

The investigation revealed that Snowling had three guns, all of which were purchased legally. He used two handguns and a shotgun during the confrontation with police.

Witnesses at the scene described the chaos and panic as gunfire erupted. One father, Ryan Guidus, who was there with his 7-month-old daughter, recounted the terrifying moment when he had to rush to safety, clutching his baby and fleeing from the patio to the back of the property.

While the motive for the shooting is still being investigated, the connection to a domestic dispute adds an additional layer of complexity to this tragic event at Cook's Corner.
