A man suspected of shooting two Orthodox Jewish men as they left Los Angeles synagogues earlier this week has been charged with federal hate crimes.

The separate shootings happened about 24 hours apart outside two synagogues in the Pico-Robertson neighborhood.

During a news conference on Friday, United States Attorney Martin Estrada announced the suspected gunman, Jaime Tran, 28, has been charged with federal hate crimes, which he said has no place in the community and will be prosecuted "to the fullest extent of the law."
