Police in Wilmington, Delaware, are searching for a hospital shooting suspect after an incident at a local medical facility leaves one person dead and another injured. Multiple outlets report the shooting occurs at Wilmington Hospital around mid-afternoon Tuesday, with police responding as officials describe concern for a possible active shooter. The campus is placed on lockdown, and authorities urge the public to avoid the area around the hospital while the investigation and search continue.
Reporting differs on whether the suspect is still at large or has been taken into custody. NBC News and CBS News describe a suspect at large during the initial response. Other outlets—such as the Jerusalem Post—state a suspect is later arrested in Philadelphia. The Independent and CBS News note that the injured person’s condition has not been publicly released. Several reports also mention a heavy police presence and a manhunt as authorities work to determine the circumstances of the shooting.
At least one victim is confirmed dead, and at least one person is confirmed wounded. Details on the suspect’s identity, motive, and the exact timeline of custody—if it occurred—are not consistently provided across sources.
