Two shot in suspected murder/suicide at UCLA

At least two people were shot dead at the University of California, Los Angeles, (UCLA) yesterday, said police and campus officials, drawing officers in camouflage and tactical gear to the scene and prompting a lockdown of the campus.

One of the dead could have been the shooter, said UCLA Police Chief James Herren.

Police found a suicide note and handgun, reported NBC Los Angeles, citing an unidentified source, while the LA Times said police believed a professor had been shot by someone young enough to be a student, who turned the gun on himself.
