NORTH CODORUS, Pa. (AP) Three police officers were killed and two were injured in a shooting Wednesday in the southern part of Pennsylvania, state police said.
We grieve for the loss of life of three precious souls who served this county, served this commonwealth, served this country, Gov. Josh Shapiro said.
This kind of violence is not OK, we need to do better as a society, he continued.
The shooting erupted in the area of North Codorus Township, about 115 miles (185 km) west of Philadelphia, not far from the Maryland line, authorities said.

(140,538 posts)Three law enforcement officers were killed and two others were wounded in a shooting in Pennsylvania on Wednesday afternoon, and the shooter is also dead, the state police commissioner said.
Police were apparently serving a warrant in York County when they were fired upon, three sources familiar with the matter told NBC News.
The officers were in Codorus Township following up on a domestic investigation that began Tuesday, Pennsylvania State Police Commissioner Col. Christopher Paris said.
There are simply no words I can offer to assuage the grief that this community has experienced, Paris said.
