PHOENIX — Since 2005, the U.S. has seen 12 active shootings at places of worship, killing 72 people.
The FBI keeps data on active shooting and has a report on shootings from 2000-2017 here.
The data does not include the shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh last year or the one in Poway, California this year.
“That’s just it, one hateful act can inspire another act.” Carlos Galindo-Elvira with the Anti-Defamation League said. "No matter what religion, whether it’s a synagogue a church or a temple, to be aware, be vigilant.”
This weekend Rabbi Zalman Levertov said security is more of a concern than ever.
“Anyone can come by. If the doors are open for service, anyone can walk in," Levertov said "You don’t know if he wants to check out the place or is a terrorist."
Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein was shot in the Poway shooting Saturday, losing a finger. His son, Shalom, was in the Valley celebrating Passover with his in-laws when he heard the news.
“So many thoughts going through my head, did someone kill my father?” Shalom Goldstein said.
