The audio release comes about a week after a former cop, John Snowling, allegedly went inside Cook's Corner and shot his estranged wife and opened fire at random people inside and outside the popular Orange County bar. The mass shooting, which took place during the bar's "Spaghetti Night," ended up killing three people and six others hurt.
Snowling's estranged wife was among the six people who were hurt, but survived the shooting.
Since the shooting took place, GoFundMe pages have been launched for families of the shooting victims and survivors. Those interested in helping can click here for more information.
The restaurant will reopen Friday, September 1.
