Turmoil on UCLA campus after fatal shooting
The killings on the UCLA campus Wednesday morning were a murder-suicide, Los Angles police confirmed just after noon.
Two men died in the shootings that caused a campus-wide lockdown.
A police spokesman said the incident was entirely contained and that the campus is safe.
The shooting occurred the week before final exams at the school, the flagship of the University of California system with about 43,000 students.
