Frederick, Maryland shooting: Suspect drove to Fort Detrick, where he was fatally shot, police say – CNN

Maryland police are “on scene responding to an active shooter” in the city of Frederick on Tuesday morning, according to a tweet from city police.

(CNN)A man shot and injured two people at a business in the Maryland city of Frederick on Tuesday morning before driving to the US military’s nearby Fort Detrick, where personnel there shot and killed him, police said.

Though police didn’t publicly identify the gunman, the US Navy said he was a Navy hospital corpsman, and Fort Detrick officials told CNN that he was posted at that installation.

The gunman — a 38-year-old man — entered a business at Riverside Tech Park in the northeast of the city and opened fire in or near it, striking two men, Frederick Police Chief Jason Lando told reporters.

He then drove to Fort Detrick, about 10 minutes away, where “personnel on the base” fatally shot him, Lando said.

This is a developing story.
