I’ve been briefed on the situation involving law enforcement in York County, and am on my way there now. We ask those in the area to please follow the directions of local law enforcement and @PAStatePolice.

In the morning, a lunatic attacked the FBI office in Pittsburgh. By afternoon, crime was rampant in downtown Pittsburgh and police had to be pulled from surrounding areas. Now this.
The fact that three police officers are deceased is a travesty. I’m not clear as to why the Mexican consulate have been contacted though.
I guess they suspect he was cartel or an illegal?
