SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say a gunman suspected of critically wounding a co-worker in a shooting at California’s Santa Monica College took his own life during a standoff with police. Police said Wednesday that the unidentified victim is a custodial operations manager and remained in critical condition after being shot late Monday at the school’s Center for Media and Design. The 39-year-old suspect fled after the shooting. College officials are calling it a “workplace violence incident.” His car was stopped by police, and he failed to surrender and was found dead inside by suicide.
