Three suspected shooters fled in a black SUV authorities said and are still at large at this hour. Concerned citizens are still reeling form the shock of the Planned Parenthood attack in Colorado just last week and sadly another tragey has struck. Was this a terrorist act? Are they working alone? Are the shooters still in California? The answers to those questions and the motives are unknown.
UPDATE: By Thursday authorities confirmed 14 people were dead and 20 injured, one victim suffering from a bullet lodge in his side. There were two suspects, a married couple.
