5 People Dead in Shooting at Capital Gazette in Annapolis
NBC Washington ^ | 28 June 2018 | NBC Washington [DC] Staff

Posted on 06/28/2018 2:15:20 PM PDT by COBOL2Java

Five people have died and several others are hurt after a shooting at the Capital Gazette newspaper building in Annapolis, Maryland, local and federal officials say.

The names of the dead were not released immediately. The suspected shooter is in custody, and authorities are questioning him, officials said at a news conference Thursday afternoon.

"I don't know what to say other than our thoughts and prayers are with them and their families, and we take comfort knowing that they are in God's embrace," Anne Arundel County Executive Steve Schuh said.

Injured victims are being treated at R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma in Baltimore and Anne Arundel Medical Center, the county executive said. Several are "gravely injured," Schuh said.

The shooter opened fire at 888 Bestgate Road, and the call for an active shooter came in at 2:34 p.m, Capt. Russell Davies with the Anne Arundel EMS confirmed to NBC News.

First responders arrived within 60 seconds, Gov. Larry Hogan said.

Wouldn’t be surprised if a former employee came back as revenge on the company for termination of employment.

Annapolis is about 30 miles from either Baltimore or DC
Plenty of military and retired here
We’re historical, not hysterical
Remember Trump came here and shook the hand of every graduating Mid
Lots of respect for Trump even though the Governor is snotty

Sad situation. However, remember maryland is THE Freak state. It is quite hopeless there. Escape while you are still able to do so.

It's Trump's fault. All his calls of #FakeNews obviously triggered a crackpot. Hell, a grandmother tried to kill me at his last #MAGA rally.

Thanks for listening,

I detest the msm but that doesn’t equate to wanting them murdered.

The MSM calls you a "Nazi," a "murderer," a "racist," a "white supremacist," "deplorable." The MSM wants you dead.

Wake the **** up.

I stopped subscribing when their Mothers Day edition featured 2 lesbians
That was many years ago! Corresponded with the editor, too

Its a small slim news source - best use is to track sports, zoning issues and local events

Everyone is gonna know someone who got shot today
Im gonna guess it was a nut with an employment grievance
Waiting to hear more

National Radio Host used to be a Sacramento talk show host. He comes on after Rush. He is a good talk show host.
