Police have identified a retired college administrator who was stabbed to death in his car at California State University, Fullerton.
He’s 57-year-old Steven Shek Keung Chan of Hacienda Heights.
Police say he was found stabbed many times inside his car in the parking lot Monday morning, which was the first day of the academic year.
A young man wearing black pants and black shirt was seen running from the scene. Fullerton police Lt. Jon Radus says it appears that Chan was targeted and there was no danger to others at the school.
However, Radus says a bottle filled with flammable liquid and items that could have been used in a kidnapping were found in a backpack left under the car.
Chan was rehired to work in international student admissions. Classes start later this week.
