Phoenix police said someone shot three people at an office complex Wednesday morning and the shooter's whereabouts were unknown. Officer James Holmes said the victims were taken to hospitals. He did not know if their injuries were life-threatening.
Holmes said police so far believe there was only one shooter but don't know his whereabouts.
"We have no motive. It is right now a really fluid scene," Holmes said.
He said police were given conflicting information about the suspect leaving the scene. The building was evacuated and police are looking for a suspect or any additional victims.
Vannessa Brogan, who works in sales support in an insurance business in the three-story complex, said she heard a loud bang that she thought at first was from somebody working in or near the building. She said others at the business thought they heard multiple loud noises. She said people locked themselves in offices until authorities evacuated the central Phoenix building that houses insurance, medical and law offices.

We must BAN OFFICE COMPLEXES!
I need to know the party affiliation before I get to concerned......
Another copy cat, anti-Second Amendment event suggested by and sponsored by the state controlled “media”.
Probably a legit shooting, if it was a government staged one there would be a lot more victims and they would be more sympathetic than some middle aged office workers. A daycare center or children’s hospital might fit the bill, but I don’t expect to see the next one until a couple days before the gun bill is suppose to be debated and amended in congress.
Anti 2nd amendment Kamikaze’s?
It’s an odd coincidence that the Phoenix police officer mentioned in this story, James Holmes, has the same name as the Aurora movie theater shooter.
Don’t tell Brian Ross at ABC. He’ll falsely accuse the TEA Party....again.
QUICK CALL PIERS MORGAN!
THIS NEEDS TO BE EXPLOITED er.. I MEAN REPORTED!!
Probably layoffs. My building has a sign that says “No guns allowed.” I don.t feel safer because of it.
Odd how we have so many mass shootings recently, as both DNC/GOP are planning to seize our guns

Could be. Could also be lawyers, law offices mentioned. I are one. It’s dangerous if you get caught in the middle of a particularly bitter divorce. Not the first time a gun was used to try and overturn a decision of the court.
yeah but why should angry/crazy people postpone their killing urges while politicians are debating issue? And its not like there are other murders being committed with knifes, swords, pointy sticks etc. This is the world we live in.
Ok, three more shot today with high degree of publicity spread by the ever concerned news media..But what about the shootings that have taken place in Chicago lately? Unless you read about it here at FR, SILENCE.....Crickets.
Officer James Holmes?? Seriously? What the hell is going on?
“Officer James Holmes”
Really?
If I hear noise like that I either grab the pistol in my desk drawer or one from my bag; which ever is closer. I do not cower waiting for someone to kick in the door.
In fact, one of the things I love about working for a small, employee-owned company that is operated the way that God intended, is that many of us carry concealed to work every day. I like to think of it as the safest place to work in Cincinnati.
I have an employee who once told me she was uncomfortible about guns in the workplace. I told if that was the way she felt then she needed to find another job. She didnt leave. When the company makes a good profit we pay huge bonuses.
If someone with a CCW saved your employee's life, she would change her attitude forever.
