THE Philippine government is checking with US authorities if there are other Filipinos and Filipino-Americans who are among the dead or injured in the shooting incident near Los Angeles after it was reported that one of the fatalities was a young Fil-Am.

The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) on Friday also expressed its condolences to the family of Alaina Punzalan Housley, 18, a freshman from Pepperdine University, who was among the 12 people killed by a gunman inside a bar in Thousand Oaks, California, west of Los Angeles late Wednesday evening.
