The article continued, "In Reedley, 50 miles to the north, another shopkeeper was fatally shot two months ago. ... Abdo Ali Ahmed, 51... was killed... after receiving a death threat and a hate note deriding his ethnicity. ... Police said they do not know the motivation for Albusaisa's shooting, but Ahmed's relatives say they suspect he was shot because of his Middle Eastern heritage."
