The Latest on the shooting at a Southern California bar and grill that killed 12 people (all times local):

3:10 p.m.

Officials say five off-duty officers were inside Borderline Bar and Grill in the city of Thousand Oaks when gunfire erupted and helped get people to safety.

Ventura County Sheriff’s Office Capt. Garo Kuredjian said Thursday that the two officers from the city of Oxnard and three from Los Angeles “assisted in evacuating those that were injured” and helped prevent others from being hurt.

When the gunfire ended Wednesday night, 12 people were dead and suspect David Long was dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Authorities have not determined a motive.
