Deputies accompanied by the woman and her two daughters went to the apartment complex to confront the suspect. She said after deputies stormed the apartment, her boyfriend shot the two deputies and then shot himself.

Both deputies were transported to Sharp Memorial Hospital, KPBS.org reported. The extent of their injuries remains unknown.

One patient arriving to a Sharp Memorial Hospital was shirtless on the first gurney coming out of the Lakeside Fire District paramedics van. That ambulance was followed by another carrying a victim covered by medical cloth.

The suspect was transported to Scripps Mercy Hospital, according to a hospital source.

The shooting occurred at Ashwood and Mapleview streets just south of the?Lakeside Rodeo Grounds, said Lt. Mike Munsey of the San Diego County Sheriff's Department.

Resident Jodi Davis, who lives across the street from where the shooting occurred, said she heard between 12 and 18 shots.

?Multiple shots, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang,? Davis said. ?I said, 'Oh my gosh -- those are gunshots!'"

She said the police ordered her and her neighbors back into their apartments.

Nearby El Capitan High School went into lockdown; students were dismissed at 1:20 p.m.

NBC San Diego reporters at the scene said officers responded from agencies throughout San Diego County.
