The incident happened Monday afternoon in the Chico branch of the Butte County Library, in northern California. Police responded to multiple 9-11 calls about 5:12 p.m. local time, reporting \u201cgunshots and screaming\u201d from within the small library.<\/p>\n

Two unnamed adults were killed, police said, and one juvenile was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe incident this evening was obviously very sad, traumatic for a lot of people. Very traumatic for our community,\u201d Chief of Chico Police, Billy Aldridge, said at a news conference.<\/p>\n

He said the library had been open at the time of the \u201cactive shooter incident,\u201d which saw the suspect use a single firearm. <\/p>\n

As officers entered the building, \u201cthe suspect fled out of the back of the library,\u201d Aldridge said, and was taken into custody without incident or shots fired. He added that multiple agencies were now assisting police with the investigation and urged the public to come forward with any information.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no known motive at this time,\u201d Chico police said in a separate statement, noting that they believe the shooter acted alone.<\/p>\n

In a post on Facebook, the country offered \u201cdeepest condolences to everyone affected, including the victims, their loved ones, library staff, and all those impacted by this heartbreaking incident.\u201d<\/p>\n

It said all Butte County library branches would be closed Tuesday. <\/p>\n

\u201cOur hearts are with the Chico community tonight,\u201d said Gov. Gavin Newsom in a social media post. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful to law enforcement for their swift actions to secure the scene and take the suspect into custody. No family should have to endure a tragedy like this.\u201d<\/p>\n
