We ask you, urgently: don’t scroll past this
Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources—essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you.Help Now >

Published in U.S.
This news is breaking, updates to come.
Police have ordered people to stay away from the area, and have asked news reporters to move to a farther location. Supposedly hostages have been taken.
Caveat: An earlier report that these were Somali Muslims on a rampage, was inaccurate.
Update 10:24 AM PDT: SHOTS have been fired out the back of the building.
There have been no victims at this moment and no shootings are happening. There is a hostage situation, with one shooter and at one hostage, possibly three.
This is likely a workplace violence situation.
UPDATE: 10:35, TWO of the hostages are reported released. Allegedly, a disgruntled employee took the manager, and assistant manager and an employee hostage. The hostages have been released.
10:46: The shooter is reported dead.
