Shots Fired, Suspect Down At Santa Monica College

Shots Fired, Suspect Down At Santa Monica College
June 7, 2013 12:23 PM

SANTA MONICA (CBSLA.com) — Santa Monica College has been put on lockdown Friday after a shooting was reported in the library.

Santa Monica police says they have a suspect down on the campus. It’s not clear if anyone has been injured.

A man was reportedly shooting at cars just after noon. According to reports, a worker on campus heard dozens of gunshots and saw students, who are taking final exams on the campus this week, scrambling for safety.

President Barack Obama is in Santa Monica speaking at a luncheon fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee. It’s not known if the shooting is related to his presence in the city.

They've been saying multiple victims, one shooter in custody but not sure if there are multiple shooters. A witness claims to have seen 2 shooters.

The shooter began shooting at cars and buses.

Obama 3 miles away, there is a no fly zone in the area, so no aerial video.
