Officers arrived within two minutes of the call, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“From the first 911 call to having him in custody was less than 4 minutes,” Aldridge said, praising officers for stemming the loss of life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suspect shot a man at the entrance of the library in the leg and then shot him in the head before firing multiple shots inside and shooting another man in the head, said Sid Patel, special agent in charge in the FBI’s Sacramento office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yesterday’s violent attack was horrific,” Patel said. “The full force of the FBI is assisting this investigation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Details emerge on the victims and the arrest\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Authorities identified the men who died as 46-year-old Jacob Hull and 74-year-old Robert Johnson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A child was taken to a hospital with a minor injury, Aldridge said. Her name was not released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suspect fled out the back of the library as officers entered, but additional law enforcement personnel behind the building took the man into custody, Aldridge said during a news conference after the arrest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mje3lW9h9yE\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The incident this evening was obviously very sad, traumatic for a lot of people. Very traumatic for our community,” Aldridge said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officers recovered a shotgun from the floor of the library and two other guns from the suspect’s car. The weapons were registered to the suspect’s family, the police chief said, without providing any other information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shooting in Chico — a city of about 100,000 people, 90 miles north of Sacramento and home to California State University, Chico — shocked the community in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada and led authorities to say they will add security personnel at each library location.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There have been at least three fatal attacks at libraries in the last nine years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A man in Tulsa, Oklahoma, was sentenced to life in prison after pleading guilty to fatally shooting a man in a library and another man in a convenience store in 2023. In 2020, a suspect was sent to a mental health facility after he pleaded guilty to fatally stabbing a library security guard in Spring Valley, New York. A teenager who pleaded guilty to fatally shooting two public library employees in Clovis, New Mexico, in 2017 was also sentenced to life in prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A library should be a place of joy,” said Misty Wright, director of public libraries in Butte County. “Most of all it should be a place that feels safe. Yesterday that safety was shattered.”[aside postID=news_12088488 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/240801-ENCAMPMENT-SWEEPS-MD-02-KQED.jpg?ver=1722631109'] Wright said that before the shooting, the libraries were visited by “mobile patrols” and that she wasn’t sure if they are armed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A video from the scene shows police patrol cars surrounding the one-story, brick building and officers pointing their rifles at the building. Another video shows a man face down on the ground being handcuffed by a police officer who then picks him up and hands him to another officer who walks him away from the building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The streets around the library were closed temporarily, and a family reunification center was set up for the people who were inside the building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police later determined the suspect acted alone and identified him as Bradley Scott Sayer of Chico. Sayer graduated from Chico High School on June 5, Patel said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was booked into the Butte County Jail on suspicion of two counts of murder. There was no indication he had any prior relationship with or connection to the victims, police said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials said Tuesday that Sayer’s family has retained an attorney, but didn’t release the lawyer’s name. A search on Tuesday of Butte County court records did not show Sayer’s name.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Suspect demonstrated an affinity for Columbine shootings\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>At the time of the shooting, Sayer was wearing a white T-shirt inscribed with the words “natural selection,” mimicking a T-shirt with the same slogan worn by Eric Harris, one of two shooters in the 1999 Columbine massacre in Colorado, Patel said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He had been a fan, and a fan for a long time,” of the Columbine shootings on social media, Butte County District Attorney Michael Ramsey said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12088622\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003ca href=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/20260623_ChicoShooting-KQED.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12088622\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/20260623_ChicoShooting-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1334\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/20260623_ChicoShooting-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/20260623_ChicoShooting-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/20260623_ChicoShooting-KQED-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">This undated booking photo provided by Butte County Sheriff’s Office on Tuesday, June 23, 2026, shows Bradley Scott Sayer. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Butte County Sheriff's Office via AP)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Sayer is scheduled to be arraigned Thursday, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jeannie Lee Schroeder was on a city bus that stopped near the library when she noticed the large police presence.

The move dismantled Pomo reservations, like the Potter Valley Rancheria, revoked their federal status and left these tribes landless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was, until the 1980s, when \u003ca href=\"https://www.narf.org/nill/bulletins/federal/documents/hardwick.html\">Tillie Hardwick,\u003c/a> a Pomo Indian woman, sued the federal government in a class action lawsuit and won, immediately restoring 17 California tribes’ federal status and creating precedent for more in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Potter Valley Tribe — and many others included in the suit — would nonetheless remain mostly landless until the early 2000s. But when Rosales became chairman in 2003, he said he saw it as his mission to slowly but surely buy back the tribe’s ancestral lands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The quest began with a federal grant to buy a 4-acre parcel in Redwood Valley for housing for tribe members. And since then, via grants, land donations and money earned from the gaming industry, the tribe has purchased a checkerboard totaling more than 1,000 acres — the majority of it undeveloped forest — across Mendocino County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s unbelievable,” Rosales said, of the tribe’s progress in reacquiring their land. When family and friends ask him about the tribal council’s continual investments in land, he said he tells them that there’s “never been an opportunity like this” in previous years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rosales and the tribe worked with the nonprofit \u003ca href=\"https://www.tpl.org/our-work/community-forests\">Trust for Public Land\u003c/a>, which has now helped establish 45 community forests nationwide, protecting 43,000 acres through this grant alone.[aside postID=science_1999301 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/35/2025/11/KQED_PRESCRIBED-BURN_AT_257_QED-KQED.jpg'] The trust’s North Coast Project Manager Jeff Conti said the agency’s primary role is to help tribes navigate the sometimes long and convoluted processes to get land back in the hands of those working to conserve it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“However we can plug in, whether it’s providing technical assistance, whether it’s helping fundraise, or just doing the whole transaction, we can help,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even after the tribe won the grant, it took six years before they found themselves in the right place and time with this particular property — and for this forest to be returned to its ancestral caretakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In the end,” Rosales said, “it paid off to be patient.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Keeping history and tradition alive\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Being effectively landless has affected the Pomo people in deep, lasting ways, Rosales said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of his ancestors were farm ranch hands, chasing seasonal work throughout the Potter and Ukiah valleys to make ends meet, he said.

without land, not everyone has the same opportunity to learn what has been lost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In California, only half the tribes were reinstated after the Tillie Hardwick case,” she said. “So

native lands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When someone has control of your food, and you can’t feed yourself, that is their power,” she said. “That’s their power move, to take your food away, and you have to
