Four police officers and an unknown number of civilians have been hurt in an "active shooter" incident in the US city of Colorado Springs, police say.
Officers were exchanging fire with a gunman inside a Planned Parenthood clinic, police Lt Catherine Buckley said.
It was unclear if hostages had been taken, she said.
The city's Penrose hospital said it had received six patients, but did not say whether they were civilians or police.
The situation was still active and roads were closed, the city's police said in a tweet.
"We do not have the shooter at this point but we do have all of our resources brought to bear," Lt Buckley told local TV.

Fair enough.
I take your point, but I won't second guess n1 for posting this story.
Whether or not we have enough information to post interesting and informed comments is a concern, but it's not like most people even bother to read TFA anyway. Just sayin'.
There are a significant number of people who complain that SN isn't on top of breaking news. There are others (yourself included) who would rather SN be more measured in the stories they choose to post, and when.
It says a lot about your affection for SN that you care enough to complain.
I'd point out that given the user base, it's unlikely that everyone will be happy with every editorial decision.
For my part, I think the editors do a creditable job and deserve to be lauded for their tireless, unpaid work. Are they perfect? No.
My suggestion about submitting articles wasn't just snark. If there are topics you'd like to see addressed, then let's have them and create a good discussion.
