Last week a witness confirmed to KRON4 that the two people who died after the suspect intentionally ran them over with a stolen vehicle were a married couple. Police said Dhariwal was stabbed to death in the parking lot of the Smart & Final only an hour and a half after the suspect’s violence began. The ages of the surviving victims range from 32 to 63 years old.
The suspect in the stabbings, Kevin Parkourana, 31, of San Jose, was out on parole when the rampage began. He was arrested near the Milpitas High School graduation ceremony on several charges including homicide, attempted homicide and carjacking. Parkourana is due in court on Tuesday.
