It was a single call that led to a multi-agency response at Memorial Hospital in December of 2018. Now, the I-Team takes an in-depth look at the investigation into the incident including exclusive video from inside Memorial Hospital moments after the "code black" call out was made. Following 911 calls reporting an "active shooter" at Memorial Hospital on December 4, 2018, Bakersfield Police rushed to the scene, but hours into their investigation they set their sights on Mario Thompson. Police discovered surveillance video showing Thompson in the hallway near where the "Code Black" call was made just moments later. Outside of the hospital, 23ABC's cameras were rolling, showing Thompson in the secure police area within feet of local law enforcement.
