At least 14 people were killed and 17 were injured after up to 3 people on an operation barged into a holiday party in a California conference room and unleashed a slaughter. An explosive device was found inside the resource center during a secondary sweep and that it was being rendered safe.
The assassins fled in a black SUV after the shooting at about 11 a.m. (2 p.m. EST) inside the Inland Regional Center, a social services agency in San Bernardino, about 55 miles east of downtown Los Angeles.
The hunt for the suspects continued. The police found a black SUV passed by slowly then sped up and raced off. They shot two suspects- a man and a woman to death. Authorities identified a possible suspect as Syed Farook and another as possibly his brother.
Farook, an inspector with the county health department, is listed in public records as a resident of the Redlands address from which police tracked the SUV involved in the shootout.
A third person seen fleeing from the scene of the shootout is in custody. A police officer was wounded in the shootout.
