July 12 (Reuters) - Three people died and two were wounded in a shooting late on Saturday afternoon in Pasadena, California before the gunman surrendered, police said.
Police responded to multiple 911 calls from residents about shots being fired and found a man barricaded in a home after "shooting indiscriminately" at people passing by, said Lt. Vasken Gourdikian of the Pasadena Police Department. The man also fired heavily upon officers arriving at the scene, he said.
After a standoff, police persuaded the man, 35, to surrender and he was taken into custody without further incident, Gourdikian said.
Two people were found dead outside the home and it was unclear where the third person was found, Gourdikian said. Police do not know a motive for the shootings or if the suspect had any connection to the victims, he said. Two other people suffered minor to moderate injuries, he said.
The suspect's name was being withheld as of Saturday evening pending further investigation.
