Nathaniel Kong, 59, was killed on February 28, 2022, at The Church in Sacramento while supervising a court-ordered, monitored visit between three young sisters and their father, David Mora. Kong, known as Brother Nat, was a long-time volunteer and elder at the church and had been serving the community for years.

Mora had recent run-ins with the law, including arrests days earlier for resisting arrest, battery on a police officer, and driving under the influence, and a restraining order had been filed against him by the children’s mother. The restraining order reportedly prohibited Mora from possessing firearms, yet he used an AR-15-style rifle in the attack; how he obtained that weapon is under investigation.

The shooting has prompted scrutiny of supervised visitation protocols and enforcement of restraining order restrictions. If anyone knew Brother Nat or has information about that day or how the firearm was acquired, please share what can help the investigation.
