LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – A shooting erupted on Tuesday at a Los Angeles County fire station, officials said, with local media reporting at least two people struck by gunfire before a suspect fled the scene and set fire to a nearby home.
Television KABC-TV reported that one firefighter was killed and another was wounded in the shooting at a firehouse in the town of Agua Dulce, about 45 miles north of Los Angeles. The Los Angeles City News Service reported separately that at least two people were shot, one possibly fatally, when a gunman opened fire at the station.
Local media reported a body, possibly that of the gunman, was seen at a home that the suspect was believed to have set ablaze afterwards in Acton, about 10 miles southeast of the shooting scene.
