2026-06-17 12:18 -ABC  -  浏览量:147024

  威尔明顿警方称,周二晚上,特拉华州一家医院发生枪击案,造成一人死亡,另一人受伤,犯罪嫌疑人已被拘留。

  在最新消息中,警方表示,枪击案的嫌疑人,一名23岁的男子,已在费城被拘留,费城位于威尔明顿东北约40英里处。

  执法官员早些时候告诉ABC新闻,一名医院员工涉嫌枪杀两名同事。

  在最新消息中,警方表示:“我们的初步调查确定,这是一起有针对性的孤立事件。”

  警方说,枪击事件发生在周二下午3点30分左右的威尔明顿医院。

  根据威尔明顿警察局长威尔弗雷多·坎波斯的说法,其中一名枪击受害者已经死亡。

  坎波斯说,警方目前没有透露第二名员工的详细情况,以及两名枪击受害者的姓名。

  执法官员说,警方认为这起事件完全是一起工作场所枪击事件。

  官员早些时候告诉ABC新闻,警方知道嫌疑人的名字,此人可能是一名临时雇员。

  在周二的新闻发布会上,坎波斯说,警方正在确认嫌疑人的身份。

  坎波斯在新闻发布会上说:“无论这起事件的动机可能是什么,都没有暴力的借口,也没有枪支暴力的借口。”“我们的调查人员将不知疲倦地工作,以逮捕嫌疑人,并确保他们被绳之以法。”

  执法部门警告说,这些信息是初步的,可能会发生变化。调查仍在继续。

  警方说,警察搜查大楼时,医院处于封锁状态,但封锁已经解除。

  威尔明顿市长约翰·卡尼在周二的新闻发布会上说:“我想为威尔明顿高中医院的员工表达我的想法并为他们祈祷,我知道他们今天经历了可怕的一天。”。“很难想象当我们的执法队搜查和清理每一层楼时,他们被困在医院的房间里时,他们在想什么。”

  卡尼称赞执法人员“在面对这一不可想象的威胁时表现出的勇气”。

  特拉华州州长马特·迈耶谴责了这起致命的暴力事件。

  “每个德拉瓦人都应该感到安全,无论是在家里、学校、工作场所,还是在医院寻求治疗,”他在简报会上说。"今天是一个发人深省的提醒,没有人能免受枪支暴力的破坏。"

  迈耶说,这一事件对他的家人打击很大,他指出,就在几分钟前,他和他的妻子劳伦·迈耶医生一起去了医院,她是一名急诊室医生。

  “我看到的是英雄们在那栋大楼里工作,参与拯救生命努力的英雄们在轮班结束时离开,”他说。

  Suspect in custody after deadly shooting at Delaware hospital: Police

  The suspect in a shooting at a Delaware hospital that left one person dead and another wounded was taken into custody Tuesday night, Wilmington police said.

  In an update, police said the suspect in the shooting, a 23-year-old man, was taken into custody in Philadelphia -- about 40 miles northeast of Wilmington.

  Law enforcement officials earlier told ABC News a hospital employee was suspected of shooting two co-workers.

  In the update, police said: "Our preliminary investigation has determined that this was a targeted, isolated incident."

  The shooting occurred at Wilmington Hospital around 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, police said.

  One of the shooting victims died, according to Wilmington Police Chief Wilfredo Campos.

  Police are not sharing details on the condition of the second employee, as well as the names of both shooting victims, at this time, Campos said.

  Police believe the incident is strictly a workplace shooting, the law enforcement officials said.

  The name of the suspect is known to police, and the individual may have been a temporary employee, officials told ABC News earlier.

  At a press briefing Tuesday, Campos said police were working to confirm the suspect's identity.

  "Regardless of what the motive is in this incident might have been, there is never an excuse for violence, and there is never an excuse for gun violence," Campos said during the press briefing. "Our investigators will be working tirelessly to apprehend the suspect and ensure they are brought to justice."

  Law enforcement cautioned that the information is preliminary and could change. The investigation is continuing.

  The hospital was on lockdown as officers searched the building, though the lockdown has since been lifted, police said.

  "I want to offer my thoughts and prayers for the employees at Wilmington High Hospital, who I know experienced a terrible day today," Wilmington Mayor John Carney said during Tuesday's press briefing. "It's hard to imagine what they were thinking as they were barricaded in rooms across the hospital as our law enforcement teams went through and cleared each of the floors."

  Carney commended the law enforcement officers who responded for the "bravery that they showed in the face of this unthinkable threat."

  Delaware Gov. Matt Meyer condemned the deadly violence.

  "Every Delawarean deserves to feel safe, whether at home, at school, at work, or seeking care at a hospital," he said at the briefing. "Today is a sobering reminder that no one is immune from the devastation of gun violence."

  Meyer said the incident hit close to home for his family, noting that just minutes earlier, he went with his wife, Dr. Lauren Meyer, an emergency room physician, as she reported to work at the hospital.

  "What I saw were heroes going to work in that building, and heroes who were involved in life-saving efforts leaving at the end of their shift," he said.
