San Bernardino killers nearly stopped by 3 men who rushed them

September 10, 2016 12:39

A lengthy report into the San Bernardino terror attack reveals new details about the killings last year and the way the husband and wife who carried them out died in a police shootout.

The report released by the Justice Department gave an astonishingly vivid account of last December's massacre carried out by San Bernardino County health inspector Syed Farook, 28, and his Pakistan-born wife Tashfeen Malik, 29.

It was just moments after the first masked killer burst into the conference room at the Inland Regional Center and began spraying bullets at Farook's county co-workers that the three unidentified men tried to stop the massacre, a slideshow included with the report revealed.

The heroes were shot dead in their tracks, it said.

The chilling report said the killers didn't say a word as they mercilessly fired 100 rounds during their blood-soaked rampage and even hit a sprinkler pipe that began gushing water from the ceiling.

Before they hastily disappeared in a rented black SUV parked outside, the shooters walked silently between tables and pumped bullets into anyone still moving or making a sound, according to the report.
