anta Barbara County sheriff's officials were responding to reports Monday night of a shooting in the Isla Vista area near UCSB.

The shooting occurred shortly before 7:30 p.m. in the 6500 block of Sabado Tarde Road, according to an emergency alert issued by UC Santa Barbara. A county fire captain said in a tweet that three people were wounded by gunfire.

The suspected gunman was believed to be a man driving a white sedan, according to the university, which placed all dorms on lockdown and advised those in the area to shelter in place.

The latest violence comes nearly a year after Elliot Rodger went on a rampage in the same college community, killing six people before shooting himself.

Fall 1966, San Miguel Hall, 7th floor. In the window was a sign that said BOMB PEKING. That person was ahead of his time. Me.

Anacapa Hall, 1964-5. UCSB was a wonderful place back then. I can’t say the world has changed for the better in the last half century.

Also on Sabado Tarde , fall of 1979, my boyfriend (now husband’s duplex had a sign (stolen, I think), “No beans for sale.”

Prayers up for the kids in IV.
