ABDERDEEN, Md | 4 dead, including suspect, after Maryland warehouse shooting
ABDERDEEN, Md. — An employee at a Rite Aid warehouse opened fire at work Thursday, killing three people before taking her own life, authorities said. Several other people were wounded.
The suspect was a 26-year-old temporary employee at the Rite Aid distribution center in northeastern Maryland, Harford County Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler told a news conference. She lived in neighboring Baltimore County. Her name was not immediately released.
It appears only one weapon, a handgun, was used and no shots were fired by responding law enforcement officers, Gahler said. The shooter used a 9 mm Glock that was registered in her name, he said.
He said authorities don’t know her motive. She died at a hospital from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, he said.
Krystal Watson, 33, said her husband, Eric, works at the facility and told her told her that the suspect had been arguing with somebody else near a time clock after a “Town Hall meeting.”
“And she went off,” she said.
“She didn’t have a particular target. She was just shooting,” Watson said as she drove away from a fire station where relatives tried to reunite with loved ones.
“She didn’t aim. She just shot,” Watson said.
Area hospitals reported receiving five patients from the incident.
Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center in Baltimore said it was treating four patients with gunshot wounds. Two were in stable condition and two who were seriously injured.
A spokesman for a health system that includes Christiana Hospital in Newark, Delaware, said one patient was being treated there.
Christiana Care Health System spokesman Hiran Ratnayake said the person was in serious condition.
Gahler said the call about shots fired came in at about 9:06 a.m. and deputies and other officers were on the scene in just over five minutes.
He said the suspect had reported for the work day as usual, and around 9 a.m. the shooting began outside the business and continued inside.
The shooter had one gun and two or maybe three magazines. He did not know how many shots were fired.
Mike Carre, an employee of a furniture logistics operation next to the distribution center, said he helped tend to a wounded man.
Carre locked the doors of his workplace after the injured man came hobbling in, bleeding from his leg. He called 911 from a bathroom before helping colleagues wrap the man’s blood-soaked jeans above his injury to cut off blood flow.
Carre said the man told him the shooter “just came in in a bad mood this morning. He said she’s usually nice. But today, I guess it wasn’t her day. She just came in to pick a fight with someone.”
“She pulled out a gun and she just started shooting at her co-workers.”
At a nearby fire station, family members were waiting to be reunited with loved ones. Police blocked off the road outside but were waving in cars driven by people who said they were there to meet up with people who were at the distribution center.
Reggie Rodgriguez’s mother works at the distribution center. His wife had tried calling her numerous times but got no answer.
“I was calling her all morning. It went to voicemail because they keep their phones in lockers,” said Kelly Rodriguez, 40.
When they finally reached his mother Thursday afternoon, Reggie Rodriguez said, “That’s all I wanted to do: Hear her voice.” His mother was uninjured. He said she sounded relieved the crisis was over.
A law enforcement official said authorities worked their way through the distribution center to clear the facility.
The attack came nearly three months after a man armed with a shotgun attacked a newspaper office in Annapolis, Maryland, killing five staff members. Authorities accused Jarrod W. Ramos of attacking The Capital Gazette because of a longstanding grudge against the paper.
Susan Henderson, spokesman for the drugstore chain Rite Aid, described the warehouse as a support facility adjacent to a larger building.
Harford County Executive Barry Glassman said that unfortunately, incidents like this are “becoming a too-often occurrence not only in Harford County but in the country.” ___ Associated Press writers Eric Tucker in Washington and Michael Kunzelman in Havre de Grace, Maryland, contributed to this report.

Still looking
L' ultimo post del mio sfigatissimo blog risale al primo giorno in terra scozzese. Da quel “Day 1” sono passati 183 giorni. O, in alternativa, sei mesi. Oddio... Sei mesi esatti! Giuro sulla discografia di Madonna di avere appena scoperto questo dato allarmante e di non aver pianificato nessun tipo di flash forward il 3 giugno 2014.
Comunque... sei mesi. Come si fa nei blog, di solito? Suppongo di dover scrivere cosa ho fatto, le persone che ho conosciuto e via dicendo. Della serie faccio cose, vedo gente. Ecco, questo è un classico momento in cui non sono già più in grado di continuare. Sono veramente una blogger terribile, i miei post non hanno né capo né coda. Ci proverò lo stesso.
A circa un mese dal mio arrivo, in data 28 giugno inizio a lavorare in un hotel-castello immerso nella campagna scozzese. Un mese è anche un sacco di tempo, in realtà. Diciamo che grazie alla mia host family ho potuto avere un cuscinetto per ambientarmi più facilmente e soprattutto ho potuto cercare lavoro con calma senza avere le ansie dell'accomodation come la stragrande maggioranza delle persone emigrate. In questo hotel faccio la cameriera nel ristorante, o, meglio, la food and beverage assistant. Perché fa più fico detto così. Non è un lavoro intellettualmente stimolante, ma come prima esperienza lavorativa non posso assolutamente lamentarmi. Potrebbe suonare abbastanza triste, ma ad essere sinceri le mie giornate girano soprattutto attorno all'hotel: tra una cosa e l'altra sono lì tutti i giorni.
Ogni tanto la solitudine mi prende per la gola e mi appende al muro. Mi succede sempre quando ho un day off e mi sveglio a mezzogiorno, sapendo di poter contare esclusivamente sulla mia forza di volontà e determinazione per portare a termine le sempre nuove deadlines o to do's list. Non sempre ce la faccio. L'unica cosa che dà un senso alle mie giornate ignoranti scozzesi è il fatto che finalmente l'anno prossimo ricomincerò a studiare. Studiare mi manca tantissimo. Mi manca imparare, mi manca avere tempo per leggere un pomeriggio intero al posto di collassare dopo 12 ore di lavoro. Prima non me ne rendevo mica conto eh. E' proprio vero che you never know what you got until it's gone. Anche se questo ritorno non esattamente prossimo allo studio è un'altra strada in salita. Al momento, la causa principale di tutti i miei mal di testa si chiama personal statement. E' l'unica cosa che mi manca prima di mandare definitivamente la richiesta di ammissione alle università britanniche che ho scelto. In ogni caso, a 20 anni si fa fatica a ragionare già nella prospettiva di una “bigger picture” nella vita.
Questo post è un fallimento su tutta la linea. Sta diventando un po' troppo introspettivo e in più non sono in grado di scrivere decentemente. Io ero partita con l'idea di dire solo che sono stati i sei mesi più intensi e sconvolgenti, incoscienti e pazzi della mia vita. Se penso a dov'ero a gennaio 2014 e a dove sono ora a dicembre 2014 mi sembra di essere un'altra persona. Molto spesso faccio fatica a riconoscermi nella mia permanenza qui e mi domando quale sia la vera, autentica Ilaria. Immagino che continuerò a cercarla...
this. all night, on repeat.
