It was not immediately clear whether the gunman was among the deceased from the shootings in the Tustin and Villa Park areas.

"There are no other shooters and there is no threat to the community," Orange County Sheriff's Department spokesman Jim Amormino told NBCLA. 

Investigators responded to six locations in connection with the shootings, including a home in Ladera Ranch. The body of a woman was discovered at the home Tuesday morning.

Details regarding the Ladera Ranch shooting were not immediately available.

The police response in the Tustin area began with a carjacking and shots fired report at about 5:30 a.m. near Red Hill and Nisson Road, just off the 5 Freeway. A bystander was shot during the carjacking, according to Tustin police.

A second shooting and carjacking was reported near the 55 Freeway at Village Way. The carjacking victim was killed.

Aerial video showed a pickup and several patrol vehicles on the exit ramp from the 55 Freeway.

A third report in connection with the shootings was received near Edinger Avenue and Newport Avenue. Officers discovered two carjacking victims, one of whom was pronounced dead at the scene.

The second carjacking victim was hospitalized in critical condition.

Aerial video showed patrol vehicles in the parking lot of a nearby electronics store in the 1100 block of Edinger Avenue.

Officers located the subject in a stolen vehicle in Orange.

"When a stop was initiated, the suspect shot and killed himself," according to a Tustin police statement.

Aerial video also showed Tustin police and California Highway Patrol vehicles at the intersection of Wanda Road and Katella Avenue, just east of the 55 Freeway. A body was discovered at the location, but it was not immediately clear whether the investigation was connected to the earlier shootings.

Traffic on the southbound 55 Freeway was slow near the site of the investigation.
