Man Fatally Shoots His 'Fun, Kind and Beautiful' Mom Before Turning Gun on Himself

On Monday morning, at about 3:15 a.m., San Diego police responded to calls reporting gunfire at a home in the Linda Vista neighborhood, News10, the San Diego Union-Tribune, and KSWB report. Responding officers found 28-year-old Justin Le, 28 and his mother, Hue Le, 36, suffering from gunshot wounds to their upper bodies.

They were both transported to a hospital, where Hue Le was pronounced dead. Justin Le was placed on life support but later succumbed to his apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound the following night, Lt. Andra Brown told KSWB.

Friends of Hue Le started a GoFundMe page to help raise money for funeral expenses.

"Anyone lucky enough to have crossed paths with Hue would remember her as a compassionate, fun, kind and beautiful person inside and out. She was a beloved daughter, mother and friend. She always brought laughter and joy to any occasions," Michael Nguyen wrote on the page.

"If there are funds left over, it will be handed over to Hue’s brother (Chay Le) to help with anything else they need," Nguyen wrote. "We thank you so much in advance and appreciate your compassion, condolences and support during this extreme heartbreaking time."
