Brian Light, 59, was killed on June 25, 2019, in a shooting at the Ford Store in Morgan Hill, California. Light was the dealership’s Parts and Service Director. A former employee, Steven Leet, who had been fired earlier that day, returned armed and, after a period inside the building, was escorted to a back office where he spoke with Light and another manager, Xavier Souto.

According to investigators, during that conversation Leet opened fire, killing Souto at point-blank range. Light lunged at the gunman in an effort to disarm him, allowing roughly 35 colleagues and customers to escape; video surveillance documented the struggle and the evacuation. Light was shot twice and died of his wounds. The suspect was later found dead at the scene. The Morgan Hill Police Department described the episode as stemming from a workplace dispute that escalated after the termination.

Does anyone have information about Brian Light, his time at the dealership, or eyewitness details that could shed further light on that afternoon?
