US shooting rampage leaves five dead

At least five people are dead and several others injured after a gun rampage in the beachfront city of Santa Monica, California, police say.
The attack began at a house and ended on a college campus where police say they shot the gunman in the library.
Police initially put the death toll at six, but later revised it to five people dead, including the shooter.
The gunman in his late 20s was dressed in black, wearing an ammunition belt and bullet-proof jacket, began by firing shots at the house, witnesses said.
The gunman then walked to the street corner, pointed his gun at a driver and told her to pull over.
He signalled to another car with a female driver to slow down and fired into the car several times.
Authorities say the violence then moved to a street corner near Santa Monica College where the suspect fired at passing vehicles.
The gunman then entered the campus where he is said to have shot a woman as he made his way toward the college library, where students were studying for final exams.
The officers came in and directly engaged the suspect and he was shot and killed on the scene.
