Five are confirmed dead after a shooter unleashed a barrage of bullets on Capital Gazette employees Thursday.
The suspect is being described as a white man in his 20’s; no ID on the shooter yet.
The shooter reportedly used a shotgun and had ‘fake grenades’ on him.
Police responded to reports of the shooter within 60 seconds. Amazing.
County Executive Steve Schuh gave a press conference a couple hours after the shooting and confirmed the shooter is being interrogated by authorities:
