Gunman in California dies after shooting with police


A suspected gunman is dead and a woman is in custody after a shooting with authorities in California.

The San Luis Obispo office said it received reports at 11:15 a.m. about shots being fired in the parking lot of a Vons supermarket in Nipomo, about 165 miles north of Los Angeles.

‘He shot involuntarily, that he shot at moving cars, he shot all over the area. We are not exactly sure why at the moment, “said Sheriff’s spokesman Tony Cipolla, according to The San Luis Obispo Tribune.

Deputies and the California Highway Patrol engaged in a shootout with the suspected gunman who died, the sheriff’s office said in a tweet. It was not immediately clear how the shooter died.

Cipolla did not return Fox News calls or messages.

A woman suspected of having been with the deceased was found near a packing plant, according to the Tribune.
