Active shooter at YouTube HQ

“YouTube employees have reported that an active shooter is on the premises of their San Bruno headquarters in California.

Employee Vadim Lavrusik tweeted at around 1pm on Tuesday: 'Active shooter at YouTube HQ. Heard shots and saw people running while at my desk. Now barricaded inside a room with coworkers.'

This is a breaking news story. More to follow. Lavrusik was evacuated 20 minutes later.

Startling photographs from its expansive campus show employees leaving the building with their hands in the air.

Police say the situation is a 'very active' scene. San Bruno is around 11 miles south of San Francisco.”

Producers from YouTube tweeted that they believed there was an active shooter on the company’s campus. Some said they heard so many people running that they believed an earthquake had struck. Others described a gruesome scene.

“I looked down and saw blood drips on the floor and stairs,” Todd Sherman, a YouTube producer, wrote on Twitter. “Peaked around for threats and then we headed downstairs and out the front.”

Anyone know if this was a gun free zone?

what, the city of san Bruno? I don't think any cities are "gun free zones", ppl are allowed to legally own guns in CA.

I'm talking about the YouTube business building.
 
Just heard about this but haven't Googled or anything. Any confirmed injuries (other than someone commenting about blood) or has anyone found a good live-feed to watch?
 
Message from Google Communications: Regarding YouTube situation, we will be cooperating with authorities, and we will provide details as they become available.
 
Active shooting at YouTube headquarters brings huge police response

http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-youtube-shooter-20180403-story.html

Michelle Tam, a hostess at the Hashes & Brews restaurant about a block away from the the company's headquarters, said a swarm of police and fire vehicles drove into the area around 12:45 p.m.

"We see lots cops and firefighters," Tam said. "We can't see any people. It's just a lot of trucks along the street at the moment."

Tam said three YouTube employees came into the restaurant appearing visibly shaken Tuesday afternoon.

"They came in from a back door," she said. "They sat down at a table. They were in a daze. One guy, there was a little blood on his head."

One employee had a partial fragment of a bullet in her shoe, Tam said.
