Laura Ann Carlton, the owner of Mag.Pi clothing near Lake Arrowhead, California, was shot in her store on Friday after a disagreement ensued over a Pride flag.
filmmaker added that he was “devastated” for her family and the LGBTQ community, for which she was a “true ally.”
Authorities received notice shortly after the shooting that the suspect, who has not been identified yet, was seen nearby. They located him, and when they attempted to contact him, a lethal force encounter occurred, and the suspect was pronounced deceased. “Her alleged murderer was later shot and killed by the San Bernardino police and so no longer poses a threat to the community,” Feig continued. “But this intolerance has to end. Anyone using hateful language against the LGBTQ+ community has to realize their words matter, that their words can inspire violence against innocent loving people. Let’s all keep moving forward with tolerance and love. Let’s not let Lauri’s tragic death be in vain.
