NY Firefighters Shot 2 Dead at House-Fire Scene

	NY Firefighters Shot 2 Dead at House-Fire Scene Authorities say four firefighters were shot, two of them killed while responding to a house fire in western New York. Officials in the town of Webster tell local media outlets that someone shot at firefighters around 6 am Monday when they arrived at the scene of the blaze just east of Rochester. Two responding firefighters are being treated for gunshot wounds. Two other firefighters were killed in the hail of bullets. Webster Police Chief Gerald Pickering told reporters that the shooter is dead. It's unclear whether the shooter's death was self-inflicted. Pickering said the firefighters were shot at when they pulled up to a house in the 100 block of Lake Road. One firefighter was able to flee the scene, while the other three were "pinned down at the location." A SWAT team responded, rescued the firefighter who was alive and then engaged the suspect. The crime scene is still active. No more details on the shootout are available.	From: Supamannews Views: 0 0 ratings
