    Shooting at YouTube HQ.

    I think 3 wounded victims, 1 dead shooter (self-inflicted female).

    This is the first shooting of it's kind I can think of where a female acted alone. However, given only 3 victims and suicide, I'm thinking not necessarily your usual mass-shooting, but perhaps a personal thing with specific targets.

    ETA: Can't believe I just typed "usual mass shooting."

    Word is, it was a woman and she was trying to kill her BF. I'd wager he was boinkin some others at work.

    Also, I'm splitting hairs here, but by definition, this isn't a mass shooting.

    Not much different than a gangbangers shooting up the block a few streets over from where I live.

    Well, at least two of the four definitions mentioned in the first paragraph would apply to this one. At least 3 victims excluding the perpetrator, and the "sometimes 4" definition of having that many people "involved" in the shooting.

    Turns out it was a hand gun. I ask because the focus on gun control usually centres around semi automatic rifles.

    Something about the choice of weapon will surely give aggressively pro-gun peeps a reason to argue against gun control.
