Emil Amok: Listen to my Live@2pm Pacific shows from Thursday (4/15, and Friday (4/16). On the Indianapolis shooting, #StopAsianHate, Adam Toledo, George Floyd, Andrew Yang, and more.

Picture freeze on Thursday. But listen to the audio.

As for Friday’s recording, reports from Indianapolis now say as many as four Sikh Americans were killed at the FedEx shooting: Amarjeet Johal, 66; Jaswinder Kaur, 64; Jaswinder Singh, 68; Amarjit Sekhon, 48.

In all, eight people died, and at least seven others injured, before the 19-year-old gunman, who has yet to be officially identified, took his own life.
