...at Apple campus Infinite Loop, for a 1056 attempt… female employee bleeding with a head wound to the head… possibly has a gun. Her... looks like security was escorting the employee down and the Westside units are just now arriving... I do have further... they are advising that there's a body in one of the conference rooms with a gun so we're not really sure if there's multiple people involved.

Depending on the police department, a 10-56 is the code for a suicide.
