Two Killed, One Injured in Shooting at Chico Library

The motive for the shooting is unknown at this time. Police said one firearm was involved, but it's unclear what kind.

The two people killed were adults, while the person injured was a juvenile, police say.

Police responded and initially called this an active shooter incident, as gunfire and screaming could be heard over the 911 call. When officers arrived and made entry, the suspect fled out the back of the library. Police who had established a perimeter were then able to take the person into custody.

Police said in a press conference that a shots fired called was received at the library around 5:12 p.m. today.

A KRCR reporter on the scene interviewed a witness who reported hearing at least two shots, along with seeing people flee the scene.

The initial report of an active shooter has not yet been confirmed by police, but they did confirm that a person was taken into custody. Citizen is working to gather more information.

Video from the scene via social media shows the area taped off and a heavy police presence.
