5 things to know about the shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego

5. Landscaper shot at but uninjured

As officers responded to the active shooter threat at the mosque, gunshots rang out a few blocks away, San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl said at Monday's news conference. 

He explained that a landscaper working in the area had been shot at from a vehicle, but fortunately, the landscaper's helmet might have saved his life, as it appears that the bullet ricocheted against it.
