An employee at Santa Monica College in Santa Monica, California, was critically wounded after being shot on campus Monday night.
The Los Angeles Times reports that the shooting, described by police as a “workplace violence incident,” took place shortly before 10 p.m. at the Center for Media and Design, a satellite campus that is also home to public radio station KCRW.
The employee, whose identity was not disclosed, was taken to a hospital in critical condition and the shooter remains at large. All Santa Monica College campuses were closed Tuesday.
Authorities do not believe the shooter is still in Santa Monica.
“We will be providing extra patrols around our schools today to further our connection with our students and their parents,” Santa Monica Police said in a news release.
