People have begun placing flowers at the sign in front of Pathway Home, the multilevel, vanilla-colored stucco building that houses a veterans program in Northern California a day after a deadly shooting in Yonteville, Calif., on Saturday, March 10, 2018. A daylong siege at The Pathway Home ended Friday evening with the discovery of four bodies, including the gunman, identified as Albert Wong, a former Army rifleman who served a year in Afghanistan in 2011-2012.

The campus of Yountville’s Pathway Home is permanently closing over four months after a deadly shooting. Officials with the residential treatment center for combat veterans announced yesterday that the ten-year-old facility next month will give up its lease and no longer offer a residential program. The announcement follows the March 9th shooting in which a former client and veteran shot and killed three people before taking his own life.
That is Larry Kamer, a spokesperson for The Pathway Home speaking to ABC 7 news. Pathway Home, however, is not shutting down for good as they will aid in the creation of similar programs across the country.
