Keyla Salazar ID’d as third victim of Garlic Festival shooting

The 13-year-old girl who was shot and killed at the Gilroy Garlic Festival on Sunday has been identified.

Keyla Salazar, of San Jose, was one three people who died at the hands of suspected gunman Santino William Legen during his evening rampage, officials said.

She was identified on Monday by the Santa Clara County Coroners Office.

A GoFundMe page was set up by friends of the Salazar family to help with their “heartbreaking loss.” The account is being managed by the local South County Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram car dealership, which confirmed their connection to the young girl in a phone call with The Post.

“Yes, we’re doing it for the family,” a worker said.

The identities of the three victims killed in the Gilroy Garlic Festival shooting have now all been made public.

Relatives of 6-year-old Stephen Romero, also of San Jose, announced his death late Sunday.

New York resident Trevor Irby, 25, was identified by officials from Keuka College, where he worked and graduated in 2017.

Friends of the victims and their families were offering condolences on social media after learning of their deaths. People who knew Salazar were sharing the GoFundMe page.

“Please donate,” wrote Jeannette Godinez on Facebook. “She is my friends daughter and unfortunately lost her life in a senseless act. Please keep her family in your prayers.”

The page had already received more than $2,500 in donation less than two hours after it was created.

“No amount of money will help the pain this has caused,” wrote one person. “But I hope it helps give this angel a proper resting place.”
