One of the last things anyone would expect to happen at Malibu Creek State Park near Calabasas is getting murdered.

CBS Los Angeles reported:

IRVINE (CBSLA)  — The father of two young girls fatally shot while camping early Friday morning in Malibu Creek State Park has been identified. 

The deceased is identified as 35-year-old Tristan Beaudette of Irvine. 

Deputies said they have no leads, no suspect and no motive.
Beaudette leaves behind his wife, Erica, and two young daughters, aged 2 and 4. 

Friend said Beaudette took the girls camping so that Erica could study for a big test she was studying for.

I have camped at Malibu Creek State Park a few times and, more recently, have used their holding tank dump station. I hope the culprit is caught.
