ELKHART, Ind. (AP) — Two people were fatally shot and a person believed to be the shooter died at a grocery store Monday in northern Indiana.
Two police officers were injured in the shooting late Monday afternoon at Martin’s Super Market, Elkhart Police Department spokesperson Jessica McBrier said during a media briefing.
She said two people were pronounced dead inside the store and that the two officers “sustained gunfire,” and were in stable condition at a hospital, she said.
She said police were interviewing witnesses and that there was no danger to the public. No further information was immediately released.
“It’s a sad day in Elkhart,” McBrier said.
Gov. Mike Braun said on social media that he was in contact with state and local law enforcement about the shooting.
“Maureen and I are praying for the victims and their families,” the post said, referencing the First Lady.
Elkhart is about 15 miles (24 kilometers) east of South Bend, Indiana.
