    Update #1 — Prosecutors: Zhang fired at McKinsey more than a dozen times; guns bought months before shooting

    At a court hearing on Nov. 4, Judge Roz Silvaggio delayed setting the next court date for Shouyong Zhang and Shili Chen. New court filings say prosecutors allege Zhang fired at Jonathan McKinsey more than a dozen times at Dublin Sports Grounds on Sept. 26 — investigators found 18 spent shell casings from .380-caliber and .45-caliber handguns. Prosecutors say Zhang bought the handguns months before the shooting, practiced shooting at a Livermore gun range on Sept. 25, and rented a car the same day. Chen's attorney said she had no idea Zhang intended violence. The prosecutor argued against releasing them, and both remain in custody, with bail denied.
