Children Lose Mother to Cave Collapse and Father to Shooting in Less Than a Week

Four children whose mother was killed in an ice cave collapse earlier this month lost their father as well six days later when he died in a bar shooting.

Anna Santana, the children’s mother, died July 6 in a partial collapse at Big Four Ice Caves in Washington. Less than a week later, Adrian Martinez Cardona, the children’s father, was shot late on Sunday evening outside a San Bernardino bar, Reuters reports. Cardona had been asked to leave the bar after getting into an argument; he was shot multiple times soon afterward while standing near his car.

Police have not arrested any suspects in Cardona’s murder.
