Quick Glance: Legal Action Following Survival of Mass Shooting at Northern California Mushroom Farm
- A migrant farmworker who endured the traumatic experience of a mass shooting at a Northern California mushroom farm has initiated legal steps against the farm and one of the owners, alleging their failure to protect him from the colleague implicated in the killings by authorities.
- Pedro Romero Perez, 24, was inside a shipping container serving as a home for him and his brother when the tragic incident occurred at California Terra Gardens in Half Moon Bay. Chunli Zhao intruded and opened fire, resulting in the death of Jose Romero Perez and Pedro being shot five times, including once in the face.

It is asserted that the company failed to implement protective measures for the workers after a prior shooting involving a former manager on the premises in July 2022.
