SEAL BEACH, Calif. - Six people were killed and three were wounded Wednesday in a shooting at a hair salon in a normally sedate Southern California beach community, authorities said.
The six deaths were confirmed and the other three victims were taken to a hospital in critical condition, police Sgt. Steve Bowles told KCAL-TV.
Bowles said a suspect was arrested shortly after the shooting "without incident" about a half-mile from the salon. Officers located the suspect's vehicle and found what they described as multiple weapons in his car.
"The officers identified the vehicle as it was leaving the location," Bowles told the station.
The motive for the shooting was still unclear. Bowles told KCAL 9 the suspect was cooperative and did not resist arrest.
KTLA-TV reports that the suspect was wearing body armor at the time of his arrest.
The shooting was reported at 1:21 p.m. in a cluster of small businesses on Pacific Coast Highway.
The quiet beachfront city of approximately 25,000 residents identifies itself as the Gateway to Southern California's Orange County and is located about 30 miles southeast of Los Angeles.
It is home to Leisure World, a gated senior citizen community of 9,000 people, as well as the Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station military complex. Two-thirds of the city's 13.23 square miles are occupied by the Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge.
