(dr. jacob eichenberger/prof of pediatrics, augusta university) if there are specific things we're learning languages puzzles using a tablet to read a book to a child there is even the simulation of flipping a page and it's your voice reading to a child i think that's all great. and it's important to note it's not just the

rounds from their rifles at the scene. we did locate the one pipe bomb that was three pipe bombs combined into one that had a mote control car, device that appears to have not have worked in this case. there were also four high-capacity 223 rifle magazines that were dropped by the suspects and left i in there as evidence that had been recovered. i can confirm that the suspects were wearing the black style taical gea we talked about. they were not wearing ballistic vests, bullet proof vests. what they did have and what people may have confused they had tactical style vests that held equipment, magazines and ammunition and that sort of ststuff. sorry? yeah, load-bearing gear. on the officer involved shooting a couple hours after the incident. we said how that came to be and how we ended up at that point in

were following up on. on the officer involved shooting that occurred we had seven police agencies involved in that shooting including our departme, the sheriff's department, 14 of our police officers involved. and then there were various other agencies that were part of some of the local task force that had come to assist inn the initial response. of the seven agencies we had 23 officers that were actually firing their weapons at the suspects. law enforcement fired approximately 380 rounds at the suspects both of them were killed here at the scene. the suspects are believed to have fired about 76 rifle rounds at the officers at the termination of the pursuit. >> h many? >> 76 is our number that we have right now. however, on them, on their person and in the vehicle they had over 1400 caliber rounds available to them and over 209 millimeter rounds on their

the house in redlands that became part of the focus yesterday. i will confirm that the search th took place revealed that there were 12 pipe bomb type devices found in that house or in the garage of that house. there were also hundreds of tools, many of which could be used to construct ieds or pipe bombs and in addition to that, they had oer material to have produced some additional bombs as well. there were another 2,000 nine millimeter rounds found another that house. over 2,500 223 rounds found at the house and 2,500 and there we additional several hundred 22 long rifle rounds found there. so with that, i'm here to talk about the seskpecifics of the investigation. the fbi has comments to make a little bit later. do you have any questions for me? >> do you believe they were

>> we don't know. clearly they weree equip and could have continued t to do another attack. we intercepted them beforee that happened obviously. [ inaudible ] >> so the investigation is still going on. and i don't think we're prepared to talk about other people that we might be looking for. we are confident that the two people that were involved in t the shooting here are the two dead suspects that we have at the scene and we do not have any credible information to indicate that there is an immediate threat to anybody in the area or anybody i the region. can't hear everybody. brian. >> the remote control car that was with the pipe bombs, can you elaborate what that was? >> it's my understanding it was three pipe bombs attached together, somehow attached to the car and it was designed that the remote control device would somehow trigger or set that device off. we don't know if they attempted and it failed or what the story is.

>> it was found in a bag that was there at the scene. >> what c contact -- [ inaudible ] >> i'm going to let the fbi address those. the gopro is not confirmed. wewe don't have any information of that or any cameras that was on them. >> based on your interviews can you tell us exactly what happened in the room and do you still bieve there was some dispute and they left and came back? it seems very much preplanned. >> we have people in the room that have indicated that the suspect was in the room d during the early part of this meeting orarty type event. it was a county public health christmas holiday type gathering/luncheon is what it is. he was there early on and left. he did have initial information that he left under some kind of duress or as if he was ngry.

just kind of disappeared and we don't know where he went. i don't know that we know enough out that yet but we will confirm he was there early on. >> do you have any motive? >> we still don't have the motive. >> how they got in the building, were they targeting anyone in particular? >> the building this took place in i'm sure you have aerial views of what it is. this took place in the southern most building on the property, the doors that they entered were located on the east side, so theyntered from that parking lot into those east doors which went directly into the room which is where the shooting took place. they were unlocked. > do you u ow how mh time elapsed when he left the party? >> they sprayed the room with bullets. i don't know there was any one person they targeted. they killed 14 people there. >> is there indication of how long time elapsed when he -- [ inaudible ] >> i have to apologize i meant

and failed to ask that today. yesterday we had information that it was anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes. i'll tie that up later on in the day. >> it seems hard to believe that it was spontaneous -- >> we said yesterday that there appears to o be a degree of planning that went into this. nobody just gets upset at a party and goes home and puts together that elaborate scheme or plan to come back and do that. there was planning that went into this. >> is there any indication of how long they had been- [ inaudible ] >> i don't think we are far enough into the investigation to ally be able to say what that pattern has been or every place they have been or what they have been doing over the last several months or several years. that's the part we're still working on. >> did he have a grudge against his co-works? >> not that i'm personally aware of. but i think at some point later today we'll probably have a

the county to talk about those issues. [ inaudible ] >> why was he invited back to -- >> it's my understanding he was still an employee of the county. >> where did he buy the guns from? >> they were legally purchased. the two handguns were purchased by him. the rifles were not. those are components we are still followingng up on. all fou guns were legally purchased. [ inaudible ] >> i'm sorry. [ inaudible ] >> there's no criminal record that he had that we're aware of. >> what about the get-away car, we're told there was a utah license plate. any idea how it was acquired? >> a black ford excursion or expedition. it w a rental ca he rented it three or four days ago. it was due to be returd yesterday. that's why it had utah plates

>> is there any connection that something was planned by that trip? >> i'll let the fbi discuss that. those are things they're working on. >> have you been able to identify all the victims? >> so our plan today is we're going to do a morning press conference throughout the course of the day. the sheriff and the coner's office is going to release the names of the victims. we have been working throughout the night to get identity of those fofolks and then make notifications so we will start to puthose names out here fairly soon. we're going to probabably try to get some pictures out for you ass well and probably try to move the media closer to the scene and then we'll come back and do a press conference later on. througut the course of the day we'll start releasing t the names of the victims. >> the county employees all victims? >> several we believe are.

>> you know, i read an article by o of testimony reporters in the sun this morning and she talked about the resiliency of this community and everybody knowss we haveeen beat up with bankruptcy and economically it' been hit hard. we will survive this. we have had a ground swell of support from our neighboring communities and well wishes that have come in from all over the place. i know there's a candlelight vigil planned later tonight at the stadium on east street and i think you'll see evidence of a tremendous amount of support and people going to come together in support. as far as the office, everything that i've seen and all the officers from my department i contacted,d,hey're doing extraordinarily well. as the chief of this agency i'm proud of the way our folks responded. t only the initial response and the help we got from our local and regional pers but for the way they engaged in the

that was nothing short of heroic. extremely proud. >> were you officers wearing body cams? [ inaudible ] >> so i think there's some questions still ababout whether they were california legal or not. we have not gotten to the bottom of that. i'll let atf address that later on. we know that the four guns were purchased appeared to be a legal purchase and appeared to be registered. >> were your officers wearing body cam? >> not our officers. i don't know about the others. i'm not sure where the child is. i don't know where she is. >> can you possess that much ammunition legally? >> i don't think we have restrictions. you may educate me on that. i'm not aware of any law. >> anything on the ammunition that's illegal other than -- >> offhand i'm not specifically aware of anything that was against the law. >> chief, can you tell us about

you're looking for? that would help you and who lived there? >> the suspect and -- both suspects were listed on the rental agreement for the property. as i said yesterday, i don't know that we can definitively say they were living there or elsewhere in what exactly that house was used fofor. the house became a focus of the investigation based upon infoation that we hadad from witness that is identified him as an employee that was there that they thought was involved and it was follow up that we had done cnected to that person that took us to that house, led us to that vehicle, which resulted in the pursuit and the shooting that happened. obviously once we were involved in that, the house became a primary focus. so we took our time securing it and cleared it safe. that's where we discovered the other pipe bombs and i think some other evidence computer evidence, cell phones that had been recovered from there and

>> i think there's a lot of helpful information. >> how many scenes are active right now? [ inaudible ] >> we're still working and trying. obviously i think we have heard the rumors that you have ard. keepn mind i'm pretty careful when i come up here -- as i said information that went out yesterday is likely to change too today and tomorrow. i want to be as accurate as we n and a lot of that stuff becocomes heary and i would like to confirm before we say it. [ inaudible >> sohere's been a number of electronic items from thumb drives to computers and cell phones taken. i n't thinke have completed the analysis. i don't know what they have completed yet.

and then we'll finish a few more questions. >> chief, was there any surveillance? >> it's my understanding there was no specific surveillance that was inside the room where the shooting took place. we a in posssion of surveillance cameras from the area and we're still going through that evidence. >> good morning. assistant director in charge of the fbi in los angeles. i want to focus on two points, again, our hearts and our prayers are with the families of all these victims of this very heinous act. secondly, i ask you to be patient, we are trying to give you little bits as we can as we ascertain more and more facts. as you can tell by this investigation and even the media response here today this is not your aveverage investigation. we have multiple scenes. we have many victims. and it will take time. there are a tremendous number of

appliedd to thi investigation. my focus as a fact-finder who works for an organization that is really fixated on facts is i would much rather be slower and correct with the information that comes out to you than fast and incorrect. it's incredibly important for us because the integrity of this investigation is absolutely paramount as far as we're concerned absent other than taking care of the victims. so we are applying a number of federal resource we are continuing to work very, very carefully with ourartners here at san bernardino county sheriff's department, police department and atf. these resources are being applied for a number of reasons. we fle in a team to do some -- from washington to do some reenactment of the crime scene. we have continued collecting evidence and are continuing to scenes.
