The woman who went on a shooting rampage at Google’s YouTube headquarters Tuesday was identified by police as a video creator who was upset with the company for policies she claimed limited her audience.

The suspect, Nasim Aghdam, 39, of San Diego, killed herself after wounding three people at the San Bruno, California, campus, police said. Authorities have found no connection between Aghdam and the victims, San Bruno Police Chief Ed Barberini said at a briefing Wednesday.
