Authorities say a California store owner has been fatally shot after a dispute over a LGBTQ Pride flag outside her business.
CEDAR GLEN, Calif. — A California business owner was shot and killed after a dispute over a LGBTQ Pride flag displayed outside her store, according to authorities.
Sheriff’s officials said that during the initial altercation at Carleton’s clothing store, the suspect “made several disparaging remarks about a rainbow flag that stood outside the store before shooting Carleton.” He then fled the scene. Carleton, who preferred to be called “Lauri,” is survived by her husband and nine children in a blended family. She owned and operated the Mag.Pi clothing store in Cedar Glen. The unincorporated community in the San Bernadino Mountains is roughly 60 miles east of downtown Los Angeles.
