"The violence erupted in rural York County, in the south of the US state, as officers followed up on a domestic-related investigation that began on Tuesday. Police killed the attacker. Hours after the violence, community members held American flags and saluted as police and emergency vehicles formed a procession to the coroner's office. Governor Josh Shapiro condemned the violence at a news conference and said it was a tragic loss of life."
"The emergency response unfolded on a rural road in south-central Pennsylvania. Some 30 police vehicles blocked off roads bordered by a barn, a goat farm and soybean and corn fields. The two injured officers were in critical but stable conditions at York Hospital, authorities said. Authorities did not identify the attacker, the officers or which police department they belonged to, or describe how they were shot, citing the investigation."
"The investigation into the shooting on Wednesday will cover multiple locations in York County, state police said in a statement. The shooting erupted in an area of North Codorus Township, about 115 miles west of Philadelphia, not far from Maryland, authorities said. Dirk Anderson heard "quite a few" shots from his home across the street from the shooting, he said. He saw a helicopter and police arrive."
