PAOLI, Ind. (AP) _ Authorities say a southern Indiana auto body shop employee shot and wounded a co-worker, then fatally shot himself while fleeing police.
Sgt. Phillip Hensley of the Indiana State Police say the shootings occurred Wednesday morning at the body shop north of Paoli, about 45 miles northwest of Louisville, Kentucky. The victim was shot in the chest and neck at point-blank range, and the gunman also shot at a witness but missed.
Hensley says the suspect fled the scene on foot as two Orange County police officers chased him. After reaching a tree line behind the business, the suspect shot himself.
Both men were airlifted to Louisville for medical treatment, but the suspect died in-flight. Hensley says the other man is being treated for his injuries. Their names weren't immediately released.
