Farooq Saeed has been identified as the possible San Bernardino shooting suspect, who reports indicate walked into a medical facility for people with developmental disabilities and opened fire.
The shooting took place at close to 11 a.m. in the 1300 block of South Waterman Avenue in the California city, taking place at a building identified as the Inland Regional Center. The facility is a state-run medical center that serves people with developmental disabilities, said Nancy Lungren, spokeswoman for the California Department of Developmental Services.
Unconfirmed reports identified the suspect as Farooq Saeed, a name repeated on police scanners and reported from some American news outlets.
Two possible suspects are down following a massive shootout, 1 mile south of the IRC building incident, involving police and a dark SUV. San Bernardino police cannot confirm whether the suspects were connected to the mass shooting.
San Bernardino police were chasing the dark SUV before the incident ended in gunfire, and one possible suspect was killed outside the vehicle.
Officers used special tactical equipment to approach the SUV where the body of the second possible suspect was pulled out.
One officer was struck in the shootout but did not suffer life-threatening injuries.
According to a federal law enforcement official, an ATF explosives enforcement officer was investigating a suspected pipe bomb recovered from a suspect.

Farooq, he lay low.

I heard something about a meeting of some department of “environmental health.” Any chance this is because a family-owned restaurant/business got shut down? I’ve known people to go ballistic over that.
