Two vigils honor victims of Chico library shooting
Sunny’s podcast: June 18-23, 2026
Leighton Leathers comments on what happened at the library June 22 when a gunman started firing; Michele Klassy talks about unexpected tragedy; Reporter Chris Hutton explains how he researched a bill that seems designed to void the citizen-led referendum that blocks the controversial housing project Valley’s Edge.
Meanwhile, Chico’s TBar & Fusion Kitchen said it will donate 100% of its profits from its two Chico locations on June 29 and June 30 to the fund established to assist the families of the two men who were killed in the library shooting.
