Running back westbound on the they are trying to figure out if it is clear to approach. Trying to find a position of cover and concealment. We have an additional suspect to the right side of the vehicle. They are focusing solely on that vehicle. The suspect, they can be pretty assured, is down in the middle of the street. Right now, waiting, calling out to see if there is any additional activity in this vehicle. I think that original scene might have been the situation where the original shootout occurred and there might have been an officer down. Not confirmed, just reports that there could be an officer down. Two or three vehicles hit, multiple officers unconfirmed. This is something that is associated with the shooting, rifle down at the suspects feet. You can see here that you have it, those gruesome aerial shots. A very gruesome scene there. We are not going to show the body that is apparently there on the scene. Tom fuentes, you are watching what is going on. A very gruesome scene. Tom, it looks like this is an active situation that has not been resolved. Tom they are still trying to determine if someone elses in that vehicle. Enough, tinted glass that you cant see through it. We dont know if it is a good or bad guy down on the street. Wolf could be a police officer, could be one of the suspects if there is more than one. They have to be careful, this is a residential neighborhood. You are talking about highpowered rifles. Law enforcement is taught that you have to have a target to shoot at. You can see, they are using actual front yards and fences of peoples neighborhoods to make sure that they have a good angle on this particular vehicle. We are breaking in now with new developments in the mass shooting earlier today in San Bernardino california. You may recall from earlier that witnesses reported three gunman Office Building had escaped in a dark suv. Now, the police have stopped this suv in southern california. It is surrounded. We have not seen any activity there. I dont see anyone in the vehicle. But this is a Police Armored vehicle that is approaching the suv that they stopped. This is a live picture of what is happening now. Earlier today, about 2 00 eastern time, 28 people were shot, 14 of them killed by what witnesses described as three gunman dressed in military gear with assault rifles. The target was apparently a Holiday Party at a california state Office Building in San Bernardino. These are live pictures. We see police with their weapons the vehicle is surrounded. Witnesses said the gunmen who attacked the building got away in a darkcolored suv. These are the Police Armored vehicles approaching that suv, which they stopped. Our correspondent carter evans is on the ground. Carter we just saw dozens of police cars racing at a high rate of speed. There were swat vehicles with armed Police Officers hanging off the side. There are reports of gunfire not far from here and there may be some activity surrounding that and that is where all the Police Officers are headed right now. That may give you an idea of what is going on with that vehicle. It looks to me, on that closer shot from the helicopter, passengerside windows were broken on that vehicle, possibly shot out, possibly something else. But it appeared that the windows on the drivers side and the passenger side were broken. These are the swat teams with the Armored Vehicle approaching as if someone was in the suv. It also appears the rear window of the suv is broken. This is a live picture from our helicopter. The officers acting very much like there is someone in or around the suv. Again, all of this is in response to the shooting. There is a Police Briefly happening now, lets listen in. At this point, the number of fatalities has remained at 14. We have a telephone number we who would like to be united with their family that was possibly actually in land regional center. That telephone number is 80 06376653. We are asking that anybody that has family that was at this facility call this telephone number first and the person will advise you where you need to go in order to talk to somebody and get reunited with your families. You have an ongoing tactical situation up the road here with a suspect down and officer possibly down . I did hear the radio traffic. I believe there may be a suspect down. It is my understanding that the officer is ok. I dont have many updates on that other than the officer is ok. Again, there is a darkcolored suv and i believe there is one suspect down. It is very active and we will update u. S. Soon as we get more information on that. Just one scene. And just one suspect . I only know of one, that doesnt mean there is not more at this point. Please repeat once again, there is an active scene related possibly to this mass shooting earlier, what is going on . The only thing i know is, there were shots fired, officers were involved, and there is a suspect down. Whether it is related yet whether it is related, we dont know yet. We will remain out here and we will update u. S. Soon as we get any additional. Were any officers hit in the exchange of gunfire between the i cannot confirm that. I know that all officers are ok. Whether they were struck, i dont know. This is such an active, fluid investigation. There are so many aspects to it and we just dont have that information at this time. Is the building clear . We saw the school buses go by. It is my assumption that witnesses and victims were in those buses. But i dont know if the building is completely cleared yet. What about the condition of victims at the hospital . How many people are hospitalized and what, generally, if you can tell us what the conditions are. I have heard that they range trying to escape and they go up as high as gunshot wounds. I dont know their status. Why the number go up three this hour . Where did these three come from . I dont know, it was just an update that the Fire Department provided us. I heard that there were gunshots, is that correct . We will be back at 4 00. Stacey were going to break away from our cbs special report and get back to the coverage by cnn. 17 people wounded. They are working this active scene as well as this scene that you are seeing from the aerials from our affiliate. Again, they do confirm that they have a number of officers responding to the scene. The Massive Police presence wolf i want to go back to alberto, our cnn producer. Was there suspicion that a suspect or more could have been hiding out in that church . Alberto from the position i am looking at, it looks like the
