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.

Bravo, TTFlyer! With their unrelenting hate the media has constructed the scenario they now find themselves in.
No telling what else he has done.
I heard the perp used a shotgun. Maybe he had another gun. Maybe he had a few bombs and a sword that was forged in fire with the words in his mind, “that weapon is sharp and will kill.”
Lots of anxiety with Leftists this week. Possibly an Anarchists vs. Communists battle brewing aka the 1937 Madrid May Days battle of the Spanish Civil War. When the Left loses they blame each other when there’s no one left to blame.
Read that he removed his fingerprints — so we can be pretty sure that he’s completely bat****.
It's not just the big bad black guns that must go. They are all bad!
Thanks. What’s his connection to this paper, if any? What’s the source of his information, if known?
He can share a cell with Maxine.
Hasn’t Waters been the congresswoman from south-central LA going way back before the Rodney King riots? How many were killed in those incidents? Don’t tell me that she doesn’t know if her inflammatory comments can cause people to get killed because that’s exactly the neighborhood mindset she represents
Tom Sullivan used to sub for Rush before he became nationally syndicated.
Good chance that it’s not on record
Fox gal, just before Bret came on, said something about the perp had mutilated his fingertips so no prints? I bet he didn’t do his toes, tho.
head case - found him hiding under a desk
The “NUT” case scenario sounds plausible.
Milo wrote a powerful rebuttal on Facebook to the “incitement” accusations now being hurled at him.
And, the “Mirror” tabloid has published a mostly neutral article about the new media furor that Milo now finds himself in again.
I don’t care what your political affiliation is...this is a frontal assault on the First Amendment.
Well of course- Maxine has been stirring people up for decades. But I don’t think some kid was inspired by her to go after a small local newspaper staff. She’s after bigger fish.
TRY and take them!!!
Active shooter drill in downtown Annapolis last week

He was reading from something on the wire. So take it with a grain of salt. But Tom is a good talk show host.
