In San Bernardino, CA, at least 14 people have been killed and 14 more injured after a mass shooting this morning. The San Bernadino police chief says authorities have “no idea” who or where the suspects are, and describes it as “domestic terrorism.” The suspect or suspects are said to have been well armed, with “long guns” and “body armor.” They came prepared, said the chief.

The first emergency call came in to 911 around 11:00 a.m. Pacific time. The San Bernardino Fire Department said victims were in the 1300 block of Waterman Avenue. Police say there are one to three suspects, all of whom were heavily armed and may be wearing body armor. The shooting happened at Inland Regional Center, one of 21 State of California facilities that serve people with developmental disabilities, a spokeswoman for the CA Dept of Developmental Services told Reuters.

The social services agency is among regional centers throughout California that administer, authorize and pay for assistance to people with disabilities such as autism and mental retardation.

On an average day, doctors at the regional centers would be evaluating toddlers whose parents have concerns and case workers meeting with developmentally disabled adults. Lungren said that the San Bernardino facility is one of the state’s largest and busiest.

The president and CEO of Inland Regional Center says the shooting took place at a building that houses some 25 employees, and a library and conference center. From AP:

Marybeth Feild of the Inland Regional Center says “the incident is in the conference area” that an outside group was renting Wednesday. She says she is not at the center, which serves people with developmental disabilities and does not know what outside group rented the center.
