Police confirmed that four people were shot Tuesday at YouTube headquarters in San Bruno, California, just south of San Francisco.

San Bruno Police Chief Ed Barberini said that the gunshot victims had been transported to area hospitals in unknown conditions. The suspect, a female, was found dead at the scene, apparently of a "self-inflicted" gunshot wound, though Barberini said the investigation is still "active." No identification or motive was addressed.
