Santa Monica College is a two-year college with about 34,000 students in an area of both residences and strip malls, a little more than a mile from the coastal city's beaches and pier. It is also about 3 miles from where President Barack Obama was attending a fundraiser Friday afternoon. Secret Service spokesman Max Milien said the agency was aware of the shooting but it had no impact on the president's event. The president was scheduled to take Marine One to the airport, but will travel by motorcade to avoid any impact on the ongoing local response to the shooting.
