A man opened fire at a US manufacturing business in rural western Maryland on Thursday (local time), killing three people before the suspect and a state trooper were wounded in a shootout, local authorities said. The suspect then fled in a vehicle and was tracked down by Maryland State Police, according to the news release. The suspect and a trooper were wounded in an exchange of gunfire, the sheriff's office said. Governor Larry Hogan, who was briefed on the shooting, said that the man opened fire on troopers before at least one officer returned fire and wounded the suspect. Several hours after the shooting, numerous local law enforcement officers remained at the scene.
