25-Year Old Karnataka Student Shot Dead In California

A 25-year-old student, who hails from Mysuru in Karnataka, was shot dead by an unknown stranger in California. Identified as Abhishek Sudhesh Bhat, he was pursuing his Computer science degree at the California State University. His body was found inside his hostel where he was working part-time.

The gunman's identity is still unknown according to the police. His family was informed about the incident and it was all shocking to them. They told the newspaper, Star of Mysore, that they received a call and were informed about their boy being killed and no other information was revealed.

Also, the family faced some problems while bringing the body back to Karnataka due to some fierce weather, and storms in and around the area. Also, the post mortem took some time, so they performed the rituals in California itself.

The family has approached the authorities in California and the Indian Embassy there, besides the local authorities, here and in Karnataka to expedite the legal procedure.

Abhishek was a keen person and a nice friend of everyone.
