Three law enforcement officers were killed and two others were wounded in a shooting in Pennsylvania on Wednesday afternoon, and the shooter is also dead, the state police commissioner said.
Police were apparently serving a warrant in York County when they were fired upon, three sources familiar with the matter told NBC News.
\u201cThere are simply no words I can offer to assuage the grief that this community has experienced,\u201d Pennsylvania State Police Commissioner Col. Christopher Paris said.
The two surviving officers were in critical but stable condition at a hospital, he said.
The shooter is dead, Paris said.
Dave Miller told NBC affiliate WGAL of Lancaster<\/a> that he was driving home and pulled over to clear the way for police and heard the gunfire.
“I looked over to the right, of course, and I saw the police in the barn, looked like they were looking for someone,” he told the station. “And then I heard the gunshots ring, and I saw people on the ground.”
Miller said the person on the ground appeared to be a police officer. He said he heard around 30 shots.
\u201cIt was just continuous,\u201d he said. \u201cLots of shots, more than what I could count.\u201d
The first 911 call came in from North Codorus Township at 2:10 p.m., said Ted Czech of the York County Office of Emergency Management. Pennsylvania State Police are investigating, Czech said.
Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro asked for prayers for the families of the officers. He called it “a tragic and devastating day” for York County and the state.
Shapiro said he spent time with the families of the officers Wednesday, and that even though grieving they took time to say “how proud they are of their loved ones who put on a uniform to keep us safe.”
The officers who were wounded were being treated at WellSpan York Hospital.
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement<\/a> that the FBI and federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives was assisting, and she said, “Violence against law enforcement is a scourge on our society and never acceptable.”
The shooting prompted a shelter-in-place order for the Spring Grove Area School District, which was lifted just before 5 p.m.
The deadly shooting comes almost seven months after another police officer in York County, West York Patrolman Andrew W. Duarte, was killed<\/a> while responding to a hospital siege<\/a> in which a gunman took hostages.
