A white supremacist who ran for a Riverside water board last year was shot to death inside his home early Sunday, and his young son is suspected of the killing, police said. 
 
 Officers responded to a call of shots fired in the 5400 block of Lauder Court at 4:04 a.m., a Riverside police news release stated. They found Jeff Hall, 32, inside the home with a single gunshot wound. Police did not say where the bullet struck him. 
 
 Riverside firefighters later pronounced him dead. 
 
 Police were investigating whether the shooting was intentional or accidental, said Lt. Ed Blevins, manager of the Investigations Bureau. He said two handguns were recovered from the home. 
 
 Hall had been identified as the regional director for the National Socialist Movement, which promotes white separatism on its website. 
 
 Hall's wife and five children were in the home at the time of the shooting, Blevins said by phone Sunday evening. He did not release any information about the child suspected in the shooting. Child Protective Services were called, he said, but he wasn't sure if they had taken the other young children. 
 
 Police said they were not looking for additional suspects. 
 
 On Sunday afternoon, no one answered the door at the beige stucco, two-story home where Hall and his family lived. 
 
 A wreath with a blue cartoonish rabbit and Easter eggs with the words "Bunny Crossing" hung on the door, and Easter egg appliqués were stuck to a front window. A surveillance camera protruded from a corner of the roof, commanding the front of the house. 
 
 Charles Wilson, head of public relations for the Detroit-based National Socialist Movement, confirmed that Hall had been killed, but said by phone Sunday afternoon from his home in Oklahoma that the organization had no immediate comment. 
 
 An Arizona publication, Phoenix New Times, reported last year that Hall had led several armed white supremacists into the desert near the Mexican border to patrol for illegal immigrants. 
 
 The National Socialist Movement website shows photos of its members from Southern California near the state's border with Mexico, as well as pictures from an anti-illegal immigration rally in Riverside two years ago that turned violent when scores of counter-protesters marched against the neo-Nazi group. 
 
 Several residents in the neighborhood overlooking UC Riverside said they were still shaken from the early-morning shooting. Some refused to talk about it, while others weren't sure how to react after months of what they described as intimidation by Hall and other National Socialist Movement members who often visited. 
 
 "Honestly, I feel like it's over," said Juan Trejo, who lives across the street from Hall's home. "It was scary here. Hopefully we'll never see any of them again." 
 
 Trejo described a Halloween party at the home last year, when Hall flew a swastika flag from the home and guests wore KKK hoods. Trejo said Hall lived there with his wife and several children, one of whom called his son a "beaner" when the boy skateboarded near the Hall home. 
 
 Trejo said in the two years they lived there, he had never spoken to Hall, his wife, or several children, whom he described as all younger than about 12. 
 
 "I never tried to even say hello because they are racist," he said. 
 
 Hall ran against incumbent Tom Evans for Division 2 of the Western Riverside Municipal Water District board in November. Division 2 covers March Air Reserve Base and eastern Riverside. 
 
 Hall said at the time that regardless of his National Socialist goals, he would serve the entire community equally if elected. 
 
 Hall lost to Evans, but still received more than 25 percent of the vote.

 Jeff Russell Hall, 32, was killed early Sunday in the house he shared with his wife and five children, all of whom were home at the time. 
 
 Hall, Southwest States regional director of the National Socialist Movement, died of a single gunshot wound fired "by a known assailant," according to a Riverside County coroner's office news release. 
 
 The weapon was described only as a handgun and Riverside police Lt. Ed Blevins refused to divulge the caliber of the weapon or the identity of the gun owner. 
 
 Blevins said he was awaiting autopsy results. 
 
 Hall's son was booked at juvenile hall for investigation of murder, Blevins said. 
 
 He would only say the child was under 18 years old. 
 
 The National Socialist Movement promotes white separatism on its website. 
 
 About 30 people from the neo-Nazi group on March 19 took part in a rally at Foothill and Indian Hill boulevards in Claremont that aimed to draw attention to America's policy on immigration. 
 
 The group was confronted by hundreds of anti-Nazi protesters, and the two sides taunted each other. 
 
 "You said you were going to stop us, but you didn't. Thank you for being tools and showing up here today," Hall said on his megaphone at the rally. 
 
 Hall used

 the megaphone to get his group to chant or incite the hundreds across the street while police officers and yellow police tape blocked people from reaching them. 
 
 The neo-Nazi chants included "White power," "Whose streets? Our streets," "Heil Hitler" and "If it's brown, flush it down." 
 
 Hall gained widespread attention when he lost his November bid to replace incumbent Tom Evans on the Western Riverside Municipal Water District board. 
 
 Blevins said the motive for the shooting hasn't been determined, saying only "it was an intentional act." He wouldn't release any details about the shooting. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

– A leading white supremacist has been shot to death at his California home and his 10-year-old son has been booked on suspicion of homicide. Jeff Russell Hall, 32, was the regional director of the National Socialist Movement and came to national attention last year when he ran for a post on the local water board. The son was taken into custody after police interviewed Hall's wife and four other children, the Los Angeles Times reports. Police say the shooting was intentional, but a motive hasn't been determined, reports the Daily Bulletin. Neighbors complain they were verbally abused and felt threatened by the family, who held a Halloween party last year where a swastika flag was flown from the house and guests wore KKK hoods. "Honestly, I feel like it's over," Juan Trejo, who lives across the street from Hall's home, tells the Press-Enterprise. "It was scary here. Hopefully, we'll never see any of them again."
