The female shooterย in the San Bernardino shootings thatย left 14 people dead and 21 wounded had pledged allegiance to ISIS in a Facebook post.

According to the New York Times, the post has been removed and it’s not clear how law enforcement officials obtained it.

However, there is no evidence that ISIS directed Tashfeen Malik and her husband Syed Farook to open fire at a holiday party at the Inland Regional Center.

“At this point we believe they were more self-radicalized and inspired by the group than actually told to do the shooting,”ย said federal law enforcement officials.
