The company also called out employees who went back into the building after police arrived in order to help them enter YouTube's offices. (YouTube, like many other tech companies requires employees to use a keycard to access much of the premises.)。

Meanwhile, other employees stayed behind with the people who had been injured and to give police officers a description of the suspected shooter. 。

YouTube also confirmed that the shooter was never able to access the inside of any of the company's buildings. Instead, she entered an outdoor courtyard via a parking garage. The company said they will be "revisiting this incident in detail and will be increasing the security we have at all of our offices worldwide to make them more secure." 。
