The Consulate General of India in San Francisco has strongly condemned a recent shooting incident at the ISKCON Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork, Utah, where 20 to 30 bullets were fired at the temple premises.
The Consulate has urged local authorities to take swift action against the perpetrators:

'We strongly condemn the recent firing incident at the ISKCON Sri Sri Radha Krishna temple in Spanish Fork, Utah. The Consulate extends full support to all the devotees and the community and urges the local authorities to take prompt action to bring the perpetrators to justice,' in an official statement, the Consulate said.

According to ISKCON's official post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the attack is being considered a suspected hate crime. The shooting reportedly occurred at night while devotees and guests were present inside the temple. The attackers caused significant damage to the structure, including ornate, hand-carved temple arches, resulting in thousands of dollars in damage.
