Fox News
An Oakland, California, father of four was shot in the face on Saturday evening in an unexpected attack that the family believes may have been a hate crime, according to police and local reports.
"I'm playing the 'why' game right now because we don't talk to anybody really aside from our immediate neighbors, so I'm trying to figure out if it's because we're gay. I just can't believe this is random," one of the children's two fathers, identified only as Jimmie, told KGO, a local ABC station.
Jimmie's husband survived a gunshot wound to the head after he was shot while holding his five-week-old baby, who also survived and sustained only minor abrasions to the face, according to the outlet.
