"At 12:15 p.m., an armed man named Ayman Mohamad Ghazali barreled a vehicle loaded with gasoline and fireworks into one of the temple's entrances and down a hallway, striking the director of security, Danny Phillips. Another security guard on duty acted quickly and stopped the attacker, who died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound."
"The preschool is one the most popular Jewish nursery programs in the area, with more than 100 students ages 0 to 5 enrolled, and the synagogue that houses it is, too, with about 12,000 members."
"When his mother-in-law arrived at 12:25 p.m., the main entrance to the preschool was blocked and law-enforcement vehicles were streaming into the driveway from every direction."
