Updates as they occur
A shooting spree in San Bernardino resulted in the murder of at least fourteen, according to initial reports. Latest reports indicate up to 14 others were wounded and currently receiving medical treatment.
Local live updates are here. Local law enforcement indicated they will provide hourly updates which you can also watch here:
Federal authorities are also involved in the investigation.
According to CNN:
The hunt for one to three suspects was taking place near a San Bernardino, California, center for people with developmental disabilities, where at least 14 people were killed Wednesday, Police Chief Jarrod Burguan told reporters.
Fourteen other people were wounded in the shooting, Burguan said.
SWAT teams and the bomb squad were working to clear the buildings where the shootings took place.
[Latest developments, posted at 5:27 p.m. ET]
• The suspects were armed with long guns, Burguan told reporters. “These were people that came prepared. … They were armed with long guns, not hand guns,” he told reporters. Most of the victims were “centrally located in one area of the facility,” Burguan said. Police didn’t exchange gunfire with the shooters, he added.
• “At this point, I know one of your questions is going to be ‘Is this a terrorist incident?’ I will tell you right now we do not know if this is a terrorist incident,” David Bowdich, an assistant director for Los Angeles FBI’s office told reporters.
• The shootings were in the conference center at the Inland Regional Center, the center’s executive director, Lavinia Johnson, told CNN. She believes the county’s Department of Public Health was having a holiday party there. Johnson said the fire alarm went off in her building, and people began to evacuate but then the order came to stay in place. Later police came and took people out of their offices.

Word from Fox News is cops have caught up to the black SUV. They’re saying 1 suspect dead, 1 in custody, 1 is running:

FYI, lefties were out in force calling for gun control and blaming republicans while the San Bernadino shooting was happening:

Jihadists in socal? What a law enforcement presence! San Bernadino is much more advanced than LAPD.
Very tragic indeed. I gave my kids a hug tonight and told them I love them. May seem like little but we live in a world that is adrift and getting darker.
I hate to bring in politics at this time but is “Climate Change'” still the biggest threat to our security?
We’ll find a Confederate Flag somewhere behind all this.
Mark my words…
Of course, lefties are already calling for more gun control, but this situation demonstrates the opposite is appropriate. We need an armed populace. Three guys have prompted how many dozen police officers and vehicles in this situation. Imagine if 30 guys were out there. The police resources couldn’t keep up. We need more good guys to stop the bad guys. Lefties will never grasp that.

They’re saying that shots have been exchanged, and one suspect (at least) is down.
As usual, the left isn’t even waiting for the bodies to cool before they express outrage at the thought of citizens being able to defend themselves. Imagine that, their response to a captive audience being turned into targets is to demand more gun control on the backs of the law abiding. As if California isn’t restrictive enough.
Just got a major update on the shooting. Two suspects are dead. One male and one female. At the new presser, the FBI said that terrorism is suspected, but not confirmed. The SUV is now being searched for IEDs and other lethal devices. The area lockdown has been lifted.
The other suspect is now in custody in the San Bernardino County jail.
You know damn well they’re Middle Eastern because the LEO has not said they were white or black. Two are dead so they know who they are. When was the last mass murder involving more than one person? They are getting their story together to tell all us right wingers not to “over-react”.
Just a bet – they’re uh, members of the peaceful religion…
Mormons? Again?
Yea, one news outlet is already reporting that the gun men said nothing before they opened fire, which meant no “all to the snack bar” battle cry. Of course that means that they can’t be, of the “Religion of Peace”.
Lotsa talk about how the FBI has names, and the names create a “delicate” situation….. 6:30 pm pst. But they were very definite to say that one of the dead was an American citizen.
They are not ruling out terrorism, and not revealing names with implications.
Moonbeam Brown is sending the wrong message.
“California Gov. Jerry Brown canceled the state’s annual Christmas tree lighting ceremony Wednesday night “out of respect for Californians affected by today’s tragedy,””
He should be inviting as many as can make it to the lighting ceremony as a memorial to those slain celebrating Christmas, since the target of the attack appears to have been a Christmas party.
One of the dead suspects has been named. Syed Farook. Sounds like a died in the wool, NRA supporting tea party member.
I thought he was the one they had in custody. But then again the reporting on this has been so crappy that I could be wrong.
The Left will get us all killed.
Yes, but not by terrorists. It will be the leftists who gain fascistic control of the government who would kill us. It will be our own government who will do the killing.
First, they get us with the IRS. Then, they start with controlling our health care. Then they indict us at every chance they can. Then, they get us with UN global warming regulation and silence our speech. Then, they kill.
All part of the plan – and enabled every step of the way by the likes of Squeaker Boehner and that scumbag McConnell.

Those Lutherans again, always going out and shooting up the town. What have they got against Christmas?
If Americans could share a portion of the anger I have right now, we could throw Barry Hussein and all his Muzzie- / Black Panther-sympathizer sociopaths out of office before they could do any more damage.
The GOP establishment to the rescue!
…Or not. They’re too busy attacking conservatives.

Looks like Trump was right all along about Muslims celebrating 9/11 as it happened in New Jersey. annnnd the lefties claimed no muslims in jersey were celebrating the attacks. *lol*
I think Farook and his buddies were just getting Farook and the missus duded up for Farook’s office Christmas party! Soft target office party celebrating Christmas was just too irresistible to obastard’s band of brothers
muslims butcher Americans so Democrats say:
1) Import more muslims and;
2) Disarm law abiding Americans
You can’t make this stuff up!
