Authorities in New Hope, Minnesota say a man opened fire at police officers attending a swearing-in ceremony for new officers Monday night.
The incident unfolded around 7:15 p.m. while the officers were leaving the meeting the suspect approached them and opened fire. The two officers that were just sworn in were hit, the other police officer with them opened fire on the man, killing him.
In the video, you see council member John Elder, a former officer take his handgun out and prepare to respond if the shooter came into the room where there was a council meeting being held.
Officials say both officers that were shot were taken to the hospital and are in good condition. Authorities say they don't know why the man shot the two police officers. His name hasn't been released.
PS will update this story as more information becomes available.
