Threat ‘neutralized’ after active shooter reported at Islamic Center of San Diego: Police

The San Diego Police Department said the threat “has been neutralized” after reports of an active shooter at the Islamic Center of San Diego.

Photos show children being evacuated from the area.

The number of potential victims is not clear. San Diego’s Sharp Memorial Hospital said it is receiving an unknown number of patients.

The Islamic Center of San Diego says it is the largest mosque in San Diego County.

In New York City, the NYPD said there’s “no known nexus to NYC or specific threats to NYC houses of worship,” but the department said it is increasing officer deployments to mosques “out of an abundance of caution.”
