At least four people have been killed in a mass shooting at a child’s birthday party in California.
Ten others were injured in the shooting at a restaurant on Saturday evening, in the state’s northern city of Stockton.
Local police say the victims include adults and children. The conditions of the injured have not been confirmed.
A suspect is still on the loose and police say they believe the shooting may have been “targeted”.
The San Joaquin county sheriff’s office said the shooting happened shortly before 18:00 local time (02:00 GMT Sunday), and is appealing to anyone with “information, video footage, or who may have witnessed any part of the incident” to come forward.
Spokesperson Heather Brent described the incident as “unfathomable”, adding: “This is a very active and ongoing investigation, and information remains limited.
“Early indications suggest this may be a targeted incident, and investigators are exploring all possibilities.
Stockton’s Mayor Christina Fugazi called the shooting “unacceptable”.
“Families should be together instead of at the hospital, standing next to their loved one, praying that they survive.”
Authorities have not yet released information about the attacker’s identity or motive behind the attack on a family gathering.

Dick Van Dyke has ‘admitted he’s slowing down’ as he appraches 100 years oldCredit: TodayThe iconic actor and entertainer has enjoyed an incredible career – seen here in Mary PoppinsCredit: GettyDick recently issued an update on his healthCredit: Getty
To celebrate his HUGE milestone, Marry Poppins star Dick chatted to Today’s Al Roker, for an emotional interview about his life.
During their sit down, they discussed the actor’s new book, 100 Rules for Living to 100: An Optimist’s Guide to a Happy Life.
Al also revealed how the actor had admitted “to finally slowing down” in his incredible career.
Reading from Dick’s new book, Al said: “You’ve written here, ‘I care about the survival of what I have shared with the world.’”
“It’s frustrating to feel diminished in the world, physically and socially,” he penned in an essay for The Times at the weekend.
“I get invites to events or offers for gigs in New York or Chicago, but that kind of travel takes so much out of me that I have to say no.
“Almost all of my visiting with folks has to happen at my house.”
SECRETS TO A HAPPY LIFE
Despite his physical ailments, the iconic actor is still positive about life.
“Boiled down, the things that have kept my life joyful and fulfilling are pretty simple: romance, doing what I love and a whole lot of laughing,” Dick wrote.
Despite his physical ailments, the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang star is relentlessly positive about life, praising his wife for keeping him young as well as seeing the world and his experiences of it like a “giant playground”.
“Boiled down, the things that have kept my life joyful and fulfilling are pretty simple: romance, doing what I love and a whole lot of laughing,” he wrote.
Dick also revealed he goes to the gym three times a week, as well as continuing to dance and sing.

BECOMING A STAR
After starring in the film version of Bye Bye Birdie in the role of Albert J. Peterson, which he played on Broadway, Dick got his huge break and was cast by Disney in Mary Poppins in 1964.
His main role was as Bert, a jack-of-all-trades who is very good friends with Mary Poppins, but he was also cast as the doddery old bank chairman Mr Dawes Senior.
The film, which starred Julie Andrews in the lead role, was a huge success and Chim Chim Cher-ee, which Bert sings in the movie, went on to win the Oscar for Best Original Song.
However, to this day, Dyke’s Cockney accent is lambasted as the accent in film history, and according to Dyke, no one on the set of the film told him how bad it was.
But to this day it is still his best-known role and on his 90th birthday, he was surprised by a flash-mob at The Grove shopping mall in Los Angeles.
Dyke also starred in Disney’s 1968 film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang in the lead role of Caractacus Pott, after he turned down the role of Fagin in the 1968 musical Oliver!

The father-of-four is set to celebrate his 100th birthday on December 13.
Ahead of the celebrations, he penned an essay for The Times, issuing an update on his health and opening up about the secrets to a long and happy life.
Reflecting on some of his most iconic roles as aged men, the TV icon accepted, “I’m not playing a super-old any more. I am a super-old”.
“I am now a stooper, a shuffler and a teeterer. I have feet problems and I go supine as often as is politely possible,” he wrote.
“I have trouble following group conversations and complain frequently about my hearing aids.
“At mealtime I spill stuff, and when my wife, Arlene, asks me to put on an unstained shirt before we go out, I get impatient.”
The TV icon revealed that he is becoming increasingly housebound as a result of “physical decay”.
“It’s frustrating to feel diminished in the world, physically and socially,” he said.
“I get invites to events or offers for gigs in New York or Chicago, but that kind of travel takes so much out of me that I have to say no.
“Almost all of my visiting with folks has to happen at my house.”
Despite his physical ailments, the Mary Poppins star is relentlessly positive about life, praising his wife for keeping him young as well as seeing the world and his experiences of it like a “giant playground”.
“Boiled down, the things that have kept my life joyful and fulfilling are pretty simple: romance, doing what I love and a whole lot of laughing,” he wrote.
As well as still going to the gym three times a week, being part of a singing group, and always dancing, Dick has a number of rules to staying young at heart while making it to 100.
Trying not to let negativity take over is one of the key tenants of his life.

While he admitted that he can “spiral into anguish over the mayhem and cruelty” of the world, and turn into a stereotypical grumpy old man, “that’s not the essence of me,” he says.
Instead, he recommends embracing all life throws at you – the good, the bad, and the ugly – without giving into it.
Dance, sing, and be able to laugh at yourself, he said, if you can’t do the latter, “you’ve got big problems”.
Two other rules he lives by are to always be playful and to refuse to live in the past.
Last year he even joked that he “hopes he makes it to 99th birthday” as he was seen running errands in Malibu.
Now, as he prepares to reach a century, he is showing no signs of slowing down with his new book ‘100 Rules for Living to 100: An Optimist’s Guide to a Happy Life’ being released on November 18.

It seems Kris Jenner cranked the volume up too much on her lavish Beverly Hills birthday celebration over the weekend.
The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” matriarch and businesswoman rung in her 70s on Saturday with an opulent and high-profile bash at Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos’ mansion, drawing ire from neighbors over its noise level. Police responded Saturday evening to the famed Warner estate — purchased by Bezos in 2020 for $165 million — after the Beverly Hills Police Department received radio calls about loud music, Lt. Kevin Orth confirmed Monday.
Neighboring residents complained of “loud music and disturbances echoing through the hills” and police spoke with the event security and issued a warning, according to TMZ. The outlet, which published photos of law enforcement outside the mansion, reported that attendees got particularly raucous when Bruno Mars delivered a private performance. Police also reportedly took issue with “large fake hedges” — apparently put up without a permit — that blocked the street beyond Bezos’ property.
A representative for Jenner did immediately respond to a request for comment.
Jenner enjoyed a James Bond-themed bash (coincidence?) that counted daughters Kim, Kourtney, Khloé, Kylie and Kendall among attendees. Backgrid published photos of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Oprah, Gayle King, Tina Knowles, Mariah Carey, Mark Zuckerberg and wife Priscilla Chan, Sarah Paulson and Naomi Watts, among many others arriving at the grandiose event.
Jenner also posted photos from the Saturday soirée on Instagram, sharing snaps of herself with her “beautiful family and friends,” including Bezos and wife Lauren Sánchez Bezos, Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys and Tommy Hilfiger. The famed “mom-ager” shared additional photos from the event Monday.
Hours before Jenner’s birthday bash, second-eldest daughter and shapewear mogul Kim Kardashian announced a bump on her years-long journey to become an attorney. The Skims mogul and “All’s Fair” actor, 45, revealed she failed California’s bar exam on her first attempt.
“Six years into this law journey, and I’m still all in until I pass the bar,” she said in an Instagram story. “No shortcuts, no giving up — just more studying and even more determination.”
She added: “Falling short isn’t failure — it’s fuel. I was so close to passing the exam and that only motivates me even more.”

‘BEACH SEATING’
“The Colonial design of the property is simple yet imposing, and the white facade gives a very welcoming feeling to guests,” the bio reads.
“The grand Palladian-style residence was built in 1999 and has undergone renovation works since.”
Kendall and the gang made the most of the private beach with a seating area set up on the sand, as photographs on Instagram showed pillows and tiki torches.
The bio online also explains, “The villa offers impressive views over the sea and the neighbouring islands from its balconies and terrace.
“Guests can enjoy the views from the large swimming pool, or soak up the rays from the surrounding sun loungers.
“The poolside gazebos are ideal for evening drinks, and there are plenty of spaces to relax throughout the perfectly manicured gardens.”
Services at the villa include a manager, chef, waiter, housekeeping, and laundry, according to the website.
Although food and beverage cost extra, along with grocery pre-stocking, spa and beauty treatments, and activities and excursions on the island.
Dee Hilfiger, Tommy’s wife, gave Marie Claire a tour of the house in 2024, with photographs showing her relaxing in the luxurious setting.
Although she admitted it was all about simplicity and guests being able to relax at the home, not worrying that they might damage antiques or expensive furnishings.
“We have a lot of furniture with slick covers,” she explained.
“We constantly change out all the lampshades in the house because it’s right on the ocean, so things rust.
BIRTHDAY TRIBUTES
“We don’t have anything too precious. It’s a family home and we also rent it a lot.
“I would describe it as a chic but user-friendly type of home where nothing’s too precious or expensive. It’s designed to walk through with sandy feet.”
The outlet explained that the villa sits on the shores of Mustique’s L’Ansecoy Bay and is named Palm Beach for the trees that surround it.
Kim, 45, shared snaps from the getaway, writing, “Happy 30th Birthday @kendalljenner may this decade bring you the kind of love and joy you so freely give to everyone else. I love you more than you’ll ever understand! Here’s to 30 Kenny.”
Kim could also be seen joking around with a handful of tequila shots in one photograph as she threw her head back laughing.
Sister Khloe, 41, also wrote a lengthy tribute to Kendall, posting, “To my baby sister, my forever girl, happy 30th birthday. I can’t believe you’re thirty. It feels impossible and yet, here you are; more radiant, grounded, and beautifully you than ever before.
“Something I’ve always admired and respected about you is how deeply and unapologetically you live in your truth. In a world where so many try to fit in or please others, you’ve always just been yourself. […] You have this energy that can’t be replicated.
“Gentle but strong, mysterious yet warm, and so full of love that it overflows into everyone lucky enough to know you.
“You make people feel seen, safe, and inspired just by being who you are. Kenny, I hope you know how endlessly proud I am of you. […] Happy birthday, my sweet angel. I love you with everything I am @kendalljenner.”

“They are happy and really into each other.”

Jennifer has been dropping hints that the pair are an item, including ‘liking’ many of Jim’s Instagram posts since May, including one about “a divorce, breakup or difficult romance.”
Jim then returned the favour on her May 25 post of a photo dump that included an image of his book, Shift: Quantum Manifestation Guide.
The wellness guru has described his journey to becoming a hypnotist, saying it started with healing himself.
“After battling with a chronic illness for over 30 years, I learned how to heal and recover from the mental and physical pain it left me with,” Jim writes on his website.
“Through doing the inner work, I not only changed my life, but I’ve helped thousands of others break free from their past to create an entirely new, empowered reality.”
Jennifer, 56, first met ex-husband and fellow actor, Justin in 2007, before beginning their relationship in 2011.
