U.S.'s Lynch says no indication California shooting couple were part of wider cell

LONDON, Dec (Shanghai: 600875.SS - news) 9 (Reuters) - The United States has no indication that a couple who killed 14 people in California were part of a wider cell which planned more attacks, U.S (Other OTC: UBGXF - news) . Attorney General Loretta Lynch said on Wednesday.

Lynch, speaking to reporters in London, said the radicalisation of the couple seemed to have been going on for some time. She (Munich: SOQ.MU - news) said she had no information that another attack was planned by the couple.

Tashfeen Malik, 29, and her husband, Syed Rizwan Farook, 28, stormed a gathering of his work colleagues in San Bernardino, California, last Wednesday, opening fire with assault-style rifles.

They were killed a few hours later in a shootout with police. (Reporting by Michael Holden, writing by Guy Faulconbridge; editing by Stephen Addison)
