UCLA gunman killed estranged wife and himself

A former University of California graduate student killed his estranged wife in Minnesota before carrying two semi-automatic pistols and a grudge back to Los Angeles, where he gunned down a young professor he once called a mentor before killing himself.

The two victims were on a ‘kill list’ that Mainak Sarkar had composed, as well as a second professor authorities believe he intended to kill but could not find on the bustling Los Angeles campus, police chief Charlie Beck said.

Authorities did not identify the unharmed professor or the woman, but a law enforcement source with knowledge of the investigation said the woman on the list was Ashley Hasti.
