John Bwarie of the Alhambra Chamber of Commerce said he met with business and community leaders, as well as law enforcement, in the wake of the Monterey Park tragedy.
Sabrina Yap, 53, of Duarte said she understands that people may be frightened to be in public after the mass killing Saturday, Jan. 21, at a Monterey Park dance hall.Yap said her booth — Aroma Breeze, which sells such Hawaiian wares as bags and scarves — enjoyed brisk sales at the Lunar New Year festival a block away from the Star Ballroom Dance Studio. She closed up early two hours before the massacre, driving by to see people dancing inside Star Ballroom Dance Studio.
Organizers announced on Tuesday that the street festival will go on as planned from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 29, in downtown Alhambra, on Main Street from Garfield Avenue to Second Street. Also in Alhambra, Lai Lai Ballroom & Studio, the dance hall where 26-year-old Brandon Tsay disarmed suspected gunman Huu Can Tran following the deadly rampage in Monterey Park that left 11 people dead, reopened Monday, Jan. 23, according to employees. On Tuesday, the dance hall at 121 S Garfield Ave. was open, with music flowing from inside.
