Police in Colorado Springs, Colorado are responding to an active shooting at a Planned Parenthood location on that city’s west side early Friday afternoon.

Three officers are injured outside the reproductive health center, Lt. Catherine Buckley told reporters. Buckley said they don’t yet know the number of civilian victims or the severity of their injuries. The gunman is inside the Planned Parenthood office according to multiple reports and local police, but is not yet apprehended.

More than two hours after the initial emergency call, the shooter was still exchanging fire with officers at the Planned Parenthood building.

When an active shooter is present. It is given by police departments and has lots of information. I suggest everyone get this training.

@sportsmommyof3: Women have the right to bodily autonomy, and thus, have the right to terminate a pregnancy. Abortion isn't murder.

i know that the media can't jump to conclusions but it is really irritating how CNN is trying so hard to come up with scenarios where it's just a big coincidence that the gunman went into a Planned Parenthood Clinic, even going so far as to suggest that it is because it has such a great view of the parking lot.

I am so thankful, on this day after Thanksgiving, for all of our abortion providers who go to work to help women every day with the full knowledge that some right wing lunatic may kill them.
