Pennsylvania State Troopers Shot in Susquehanna County
A 61-year-old man fatally shot his neighbor and then ambushed first responders in rural Pennsylvania, wounding two state troopers and causing an EMT to crash. The attacker, identified as Carmine Faino, was later killed by police after firing dozens of rounds from a semiautomatic weapon. Before his death, Faino shot at police, as well as a police drone, and his actions, specifically the shooting of a victim before authorities arrived, are under investigation. Despite being shot twice in the chest, one of the troopers commandeered a tractor-trailer to block the road, preventing further harm to other motorists. The two troopers are in stable condition, and the incident has shocked the normally peaceful community.
