Three people were killed in a shooting at a manufacturing plant in Smithsburg, Maryland, on Thursday afternoon, authorities said. A law enforcement official who confirmed the fatalities also said four others were injured in the attack.
A Maryland state trooper suffered a minor injury in a confrontation with the suspect, who was captured and is alive, the official said.
Gov. Larry Hogan said at an impromptu news conference that the suspect was chased by vehicle and that a trooper who confronted the alleged shooter was struck by gunfire and returned fire.
