Police are attending a shooting at a social services facility in California.

The San Bernardino Fire Department tweeted that it was responding to a "20 victim shooting incident" and it was working to clear the scene.

It is still a "very active scene" and police are trying to secure the building, said a spokeswoman from the San Bernardino Police Department.

There may be up to three gunmen she said, and they were heavily armed and possibly wearing body armour.

She did not confirm the number of victims.

A local reporter tweeted that people are being evacuated from the Inland Regional Center, a non-profit medical and health organisation.

I'm guessing but this sounds like a motorcycle gang retaliation on another gang. Again, total conjecture.

EDIT: Reading more I take it back. Another disturbing trend in the states.

If the early reports are true of not the usual American loon with a gun and grudge but three gunmen it could prove to be another attack

Why don't the Yanks just round up all their crazed lone shooters, along with their stock of psychopathic, lion-slaughtering dentists... and ship the lot of them off to Syria, as Uncle Sam's crack troop front line against ISIS?

The US loses its crazies, the Jihadis make it to paradise... Result!

Depends how you describe a loon as its a centre for vulnerable people (social services)and is more likely to be a dysfunctional loon or two who're doing this.
Defo a local loon with health issues

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. | Multiple people were shot Wednesday at a Southern California social services center, and police were searching for up to three gunmen, authorities said.

Several law enforcement agencies converged on the scene in San Bernardino, and triage units were being set up in the area.

Some people were seen being wheeled away on gurneys, while others walked quickly from a building with their hands in the air. They were searched by police before being reunited with loved ones.

Police were working to secure the scene in the inland region about 60 miles east of Los Angeles, Sgt. Vicky Cervantes said. No arrests have been made.



Terry Petit said he got a text from his daughter saying she was hiding after gunfire erupted at the social services facility where she works.

Petit choked back tears as he read the texts for reporters outside the center. He said she wrote: "People shot. In the office waiting for cops. Pray for us. I am locked in an

Terry Petit said he got a text from his daughter saying she was hiding after gunfire erupted at the social services facility where she works.

Petit choked back tears as he read the texts for reporters outside the center. He said she wrote: "People shot. In the office waiting for cops. Pray for us. I am locked in an office."

At a Shell gas station about a block from the shooting site, store manager Ana Fuentes said there was a flood of police activity in the area.

"There's maybe like 150 cops going toward Hospitality Lane," she said, as sirens echoed in the background.

She said she hadn't gotten any instructions to stay inside but that customers coming in told her about the shootings at Inland Regional Center.

The center says on its website that it provides social services to people with developmental disabilities.

Shirley American gun laws should be relaxed to allow US citizens to fight back against these crazy gun men.

Fair Oaks Ave. Pasadena now with SWAT situation. Watch out Sheldon--it's getting like Texas!

cooper, hofstadter, koothrappali & wolowitz may not be in as much trouble. It appears Pasadena not related to San Bernardino.

It appears this facility was owned by the actual county of San Bernardino and three gunman opened up on the christmas party that was being held by a department of San Bernardino County.
