On April 25, 1965, a tragic mass shooting occurred on Highway 101 in California, carried out by 16-year-old Michael Clark. The shooting resulted in the deaths of three individuals and left many others injured. The incident raised questions about public safety, youth violence, and firearm access. In the aftermath, the victims' families sought justice through legal action against Clark's parents, leading to a significant court ruling on parental responsibility in firearm storage. The event also influenced pop culture, inspiring the film 'Targets' and marking an early chapter in America's ongoing struggle with mass violence.
