"At least two people were seriously injured in a shooting involving police in the southern part of Pennsylvania on Wednesday, and Gov. Josh Shapiro was rushing to the scene, officials said. An investigation is occurring in the area of North Codorus Township, about 115 miles west of Philadelphia, not far from the Maryland line, authorities said. York Hospital said it was treating two people in serious condition related to a police incident in northern York County. The hospital said enhanced security protocols are in place."
"Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday said he is also heading to the scene. Sunday said on social media he urges "all residents to follow the instructions of local law enforcement" and he is "praying for all involved." A local school district issued a shelter-in-place order, though it said schools and students were not involved in the shooting. The order was lifted later in the afternoon."
