Aerial images from KTVU showed officers on the scene, with some patting down a line of people outside.

Todd Sherman, who identified himself as a Product Manager at Youtube, claimed he was in a meeting at the building when they heard people running. He said he and others made their way to the exit and at one point when he "looked down" he "saw blood drips on the floor and stairs." He said he saw authorities on the scene and added that he was on his way home.

The FBI told Fox News that they are "tracking" the situation but said agents have not yet responded to the location.
