Wong's parents unaware he owned handguns
The father of the man who killed 13 people
inside an immigrant services center in Binghamton says he never saw
his son with a handgun and didn't know he owned one.
In an interview with the Post-Standard of Syracuse, Henry Voong
and his wife, Mui Thong, say they're "deeply sorry" for the
actions of their son, 41-year-old Jiverly Wong.
On April 3, Wong walked into the American Civic Association and
opened fire with two handguns, killing 13 people and wounding four
others before committing suicide.
Voong says his son kept to himself and rarely interacted with
his family despite living in the same house in Johnson City, near
Binghamton.
Voong and Thong say they didn't learn of their son's role in the
shootings until reading about it in a newspaper the next day.
