On Friday, two female employees at a Southern California technical college were shot on campus and subsequently hospitalized in what authorities described as an incident of workplace violence.

The shooting took place around 4 p.m. in an office at Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology in Inglewood. Mayor James Butts indicated that the suspect was believed to be a former employee of the college.

Aerial TV video showed a heavy police presence outside the campus in the city, which abuts Los Angeles to the southwest.

One of the victims was in critical condition, Butts said.

The Los Angeles County Fire Department confirmed on the social platform X that two people were taken to the hospital.

A person was taken into custody after initially leaving the scene, Butts said.

The Los Angeles Police Department reported that officers apprehended a male suspect from a vehicle that matched the description of one linked to the shooting. This information had been provided to local law enforcement by the Inglewood Police Department.

The Inglewood police did not immediately respond to a request for more information.

The school went on lockdown for at least an hour after the shooting.

Chris Becker, president and chief administrator of the campus, told KABC-TV that the campus is patrolled regularly and, as an aviation school, safety is one of its primary focuses.

“It’s a peaceful campus,” Becker said. “It’s a nice community of students and teachers and staff.”

The Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology has campuses across the country.

The college’s Inglewood location, about a mile from the Los Angeles International Airport, accommodates 500 students and offers training programs focused on aviation maintenance technology, according to its website.
