Thank God..They Captured This Suspect

(CNN) -- Police captured a suspect in a shooting at a California religious college that resulted in "multiple fatalities" Monday, an Oakland police spokeswoman said.

Several other wounded people were taken to hospitals, police said.

A SWAT team entered Oikos University in East Oakland to make sure no other shooters or wounded people were on the campus building, police spokeswoman Johnna Watson said.

"We are interviewing the witnesses right now to try to determine if this person is known to them," Watson said, shortly before confirming that a suspect was in custody.

Aeriel news video showed what appeared to be several bodies covered by tarps on the ground outside of the building.

Gunfire erupted inside the single-story building that houses the private Christian college at about 10:30 a.m. (1:30 p.m. ET), according to Lucas Garcia, who was teaching an English class when it began.

Garcia told CNN affiliate KGO-TV that he counted about six gunshots from a nearby nursing classroom when he heard someone yell, "He's got a gun."

Garcia evacuated his students from the building while the gunfire continued, he said.

The college offers degrees in theology, music, nursing and Asian medicine, according to its website.
