A mosque security guard was among the dead in what is being described as a hate crime at the Islamic Center of San Diego, San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl said at a news conference at a neighborhood park across from the scene.<\/p>\n

The center is the largest mosque in San Diego County and includes the Al Rashid School that offers courses in Arabic language, Islamic studies and the Quran for students ages 5 and up, according to its website.<\/p>\n

Aerial TV footage showed more than a dozen children holding hands and being walked out of the parking lot of the center that is surrounded by scores of police vehicles. The white mosque is in a neighborhood of homes, apartments and strip malls with Middle Eastern restaurants and markets.<\/p>\n

Wahl said the case is being investigated as a hate crime but did not give more details.<\/p>\n

Imam Taha Hassane, standing next to the chief at the news conference, said the center focused on interfaith relations and community building, and that a group of non-Muslims had been touring the mosque earlier Monday to learn about Islam.<\/p>\n

The Islamic Center\u2019s website says its mission is to not only serve the Muslim population but also \u201cwork with the larger community to serve the less fortunate, to educate, and to better our nation.\u201d Five daily prayers are held there, and the mosque works with other organizations and people of all faiths on social causes.<\/p>\n

Gov. Gavin Newsom\u2019s office said he was being briefed.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful to the first responders on the scene working to protect the community and urge everyone to follow guidance from local authorities,\u201d his office posted on the social platform X.<\/p>\n
